DRC 2021 in bottle: Seven wines and two library vintages tasted

DRC 2021

Although 2021 is distinctly different from other recent vintages, they have a delicious elegance, and if they lack the robust power of 2018, 2019 or 2020, their finesse shows a charm of its own. To understand the vintage, one must judge the wines on their own terms.

The recent launch of the bottled wines from Domaine de la Romanée-Contie began with a recap of the vintage by Bertrand de Villaine; ‘incredible’ in his words.
