About Winery
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC), founded in 1869 in Vosne-Romanée, Burgundy, is widely regarded as the most prestigious wine estate in the world, producing some of the rarest and most expensive wines from its legendary Grand Cru vineyards.
The estate’s history stretches back to 1232, when the Abbey of Saint Vivant acquired vineyard land in Vosne, later expanded by the de Croonembourg family in the 17th century, who renamed it “Romanée” and also purchased La Tâche. In 1760, the vineyard was acquired by Prince de Conti, giving it the name Romanée-Conti. After passing through various owners, the domaine was consolidated in 1869 by Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet, forming the modern estate. Today, DRC owns exclusive rights to Romanée-Conti and La Tâche, along with holdings in other Grand Crus such as Richebourg, Grands Échezeaux, Échezeaux, and Montrachet, producing both red Pinot Noir and white Chardonnay wines. Co-directed for decades by Aubert de Villaine and Henri-Frédéric Roch, the domaine has become synonymous with meticulous vineyard care, low yields, and uncompromising quality. Its wines are celebrated for their rarity, complexity, and longevity, making DRC the pinnacle of Burgundy and one of the most revered names in global fine wine.
