Indulge in the epitome of Burgundian winemaking excellence at the exclusive Domaine de la Romanée Conti (DRC) 2002 wine dinner at Restaurant Petrus. Immerse yourself in the legacy of DRC, an estate hailed as one of the world’s most esteemed wine producers, where bottles are not merely wines but coveted treasures.
At DRC, meticulous care is given to the ancient vines, with an average age of approximately 50 years, resulting in incredibly low yields. These vines are nurtured through biodynamic practices, where it takes the dedication of about three grapevines to craft a single bottle of their esteemed wines.
The year 2002 in Burgundy marked another triumph in a series of exceptional vintages. A dry, sun-kissed September blessed the vines with cool breezes, safeguarding the delicate fruit character of the revered Pinot Noir grape.
Highlights of the evening include:
Romanée-Conti
Positioned at the heart of Vosne-Romanée and exclusively owned by DRC, this climate is a small, square-shaped appellation, surrounded by grand cru vineyards. The 2002 vintage saw a production of approximately 5,000 bottles, showcasing the rarity and exclusivity of this wine.
La Tâche
