Wine Information

The 2022 vintage at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 

What words could possibly do justice to everything one would like to recount and share after having had the good fortune to witness the birth of a vintage as exceptional as 2022?


Some might say we would need a Virgil to write an ode to 2022… In truth, it was the vine itself that, this year, composed an ode to its own glory — the vine, that extraordinary plant, without equal in the vegeta...

Bourgogne 2022: A generous and promising vintage

The 2022 vintage encapsulates what Bourgogne does best: Generosity and promise! After three years of quality without quantity, with yields impacted by weather events, it is certainly welcome, taking some of the pressure off sales and allowing stocks to be built back up. Despite some small disparities depending on the varietal, the vines stood up pretty well to some rather extreme weather and ...

Written Notes

The Romanée-Conti 2022 is a wine of extraordinary poise and authority, capturing the rare balance between the generosity of the vintage and the ineffable finesse of this singular vineyard. It is immediately clear that this is a Romanée-Conti of depth, serenity, and quiet power, where intensity is expressed not through force, but through purity, texture, and length.

The nose is profoundly layered and endlessly nuanced. It opens with wild strawberry, red cherry, and black raspberry, then deepens into darker tones of Morello cherry, blood orange peel, and ripe plum skin. Floral elements are hauntingly precise: rose petal, peony, and dried violet, drifting effortlessly above the fruit. With air, complex tertiary nuances emerge—exotic spice, sandalwood, incense, forest floor, and warm limestone—each note perfectly integrated, never dominating, always in harmony. The aromatic persistence is remarkable, evolving continuously in the glass with calm authority.

On the palate, the wine is silken, expansive, and perfectly composed, with a texture that feels both weightless and deeply resonant. The entry is seamless, gliding across the palate with layers of pure red and dark berry fruit, framed by ultra-fine, perfectly ripe tannins that are present yet almost imperceptible. The 2022 vintage brings a sense of generosity and flesh, but Romanée-Conti’s natural tension keeps the wine precise, vertical, and supremely balanced. A profound mineral core—chalky, saline, and subtly earthy—runs through the center of the wine, giving it extraordinary inner structure and length.

As the wine unfolds, notes of black tea, spice box, dried herbs, and faint savory umami appear, adding depth and dimension without disrupting the wine’s crystalline clarity. The acidity is perfectly judged, lending lift and energy while allowing the wine’s texture to remain luxurious and flowing. The finish is exceptionally long, calm, and resonant, echoing fruit, florality, and stone for minutes, leaving a lasting impression of completeness rather than power.
