The Montrachet DRC 2002 is a Grand Cru white Burgundy, exclusively made from Chardonnay. Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, established in 1869, is renowned for its meticulous vineyard management and dedication to terroir. This particular vintage reflects the distinct characteristics of its vineyard, which spans 0.67 hectares within Montrachet, situated on the Chassagne-Montrachet side. The vines, averaging over 60 years in age, thrive in shallow, stony limestone soils. This combination results in a wine with notable structure and the potential for extended ageing, appealing to serious collectors and connoisseurs alike.
