La Cuvée
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, often abbreviated to DRC, is one of Burgundy's most prestigious producers, renowned for wines of unrivalled finesse and complexity. Échezeaux Grand Cru, made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, is renowned for its rapid maturity and delicate expression. The 1973 vintage, although considered less complex than others, offers a seductive clarity of expression, with a tenderness that overlies a firm structure, enabling it to evolve with elegance.
The 1973 vintage
The 1973 vintage was marked by variable weather conditions in Burgundy, resulting in wines that opened up more rapidly than other vintages. DRC's 1973 Échezeaux presents seductive aromas of ripe red fruit, undergrowth and subtle spicy notes. On the palate, it reveals a silky texture, with balanced structure and an elegant finish. Although it has reached optimum maturity, this wine continues to bear witness to the estate's exceptional expertise.
