Domaine de la Romanￃﾩe Conti (DRC) is an estate in burgundy that produces wines considered by many to be the greatest in the world.
La Tￃﾢche and Romanￃﾩe-Conti, the two most celebrated vineyards in Burgundy, are DRC monopoles. The domaine also owns significant portions of several other Vosne-Romanￃﾩe grand crus: Echￃﾩzeaux, Grands Echￃﾩzeaux, Romanￃﾩe Saint Vivant, and Richebourg. DRC produces a small amount of white burgundy from grand cru Montrachet.
The combination of quality and rarity causes DRC wines to command astronomically high market prices: prime vintages consistently set new records on the wine auction market.
DRC also formerly produced a wine known as Les Gaudichots, from a vineyard which has since been reclassified as part of La Tache. These wines are incredibly rare collectibles today -- a significant number of the renowned 1929 Les Gaudichots were recently brought to market via Christie's sale of the Doris Duke collection.
