  • Grand Cru « Romanée-Conti »

The most legendary Vintage of the winery is the Romanée-Conti. This wine comes from a tiny plot of 1, 8140, this surface is unchanged since 1580, which currently provides 4,000 bottles per year. This parcel was originally named the “Cros de Clous” and took the name Romanée in 1631. In 1760, the Prince de Conti has torn a high price to Madame de Pompadour. It was therefore called Romanée-Conti in 1793. Wines from this grand cru are delicate, which challenges winemakers and different tasters. Many do not understand this wine, which is to share in the very closed circle of great wines.
