Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Corton Grand Cru 2014: a 91-point red from leased vines

The 2014 was the sixth Corton made by Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, whose first vintage of it was 2009. Robert Parker Wine Advocate rates it 91/100. Our suggested drinking window runs from 2018 to 2032, so the bottle is inside it now.

The wine is red and dry, made from Pinot Noir, the principal grape under the Corton appellation rules.

Three climats, one Corton

The estate farms 2.27 ha of Corton under a rental agreement (fermage) that has been in force since 11 November 2008. The land belongs to the Prince Florent de Mérode family. It is made up of three climats: Clos du Roi (0.57 ha), Bressandes (1.19 ha) and Renardes (about 0.50 ha).

The three climats go into one wine labelled Corton. The plan to bottle the three climats separately was not carried out. The estate’s harvest records for 2009 to 2019 range from 2,907 bottles of Corton (2012) to 8,480 bottles (2009).

Biodynamic farming on rented Corton vines

The estate has farmed its vineyards organically since 1985. It trialled biodynamic methods from 1990 to 2006, applied them across the estate afterwards and obtained Biodyvin certification in 2016.

The 2014 vintage rating and the Corton hill

The Wine Advocate chart line for red Burgundy of the Côte de Beaune rates the 2014 year at 91, with the letter E, meaning early maturing and accessible. The hill of Corton lies in the Côte de Beaune, across the communes of Aloxe-Corton, Ladoix and Pernand-Vergelesses. The 91 rates the year across the region; the 91 given above scores this wine.

Corton Grand Cru, recognised in 1937
