Échezeaux in the estate’s holdings

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti owns 4.67 ha of Échezeaux. Unlike Romanée-Conti and La Tâche, it is not a monopole: the estate holds part of a larger appellation. Échezeaux was recognised by the decree of 31 July 1937, and it is one of two Grand Cru appellations in the commune of Flagey-Échezeaux, the other being Grands-Échezeaux.

The family holding goes back further than the appellation. Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet already owned vines in Échezeaux when he bought Romanée-Conti in 1869. The estate has farmed its vineyards organically since 1985 and holds Biodyvin biodynamic certification, obtained in 2016.
