What is Domaine de la Romanée-Conti?


Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is a domaine with approximately 29 hectares of Grand Cru vines, including exclusive holdings in Romanée-Conti and La Tâche. It also farms parcels in Richebourg, Romanée-Saint-Vivant, Échézeaux, Grands Échézeaux, Corton, and Le Montrachet.

Red wines are centered on Pinot Noir, with limited Chardonnay for the whites. Farming follows biodynamic practices, with hand-picking and traditional methods in the cellar. Annual output is small—roughly 6,000 to 8,000 cases—which adds to the wines’ scarcity among collectors around the world.
