Full Product Description

The Gold Standard of Investment: A Pristine 2022 OWC

This listing is for a factory-banded 3-bottle Original Wooden Case (OWC) of the 2022 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Montrachet.

For the serious collector, the "Banded OWC" is the ultimate guarantee of provenance. It certifies that these bottles have not been separated since leaving the Domaine’s cellars in Vosne-Romanée, ensuring they share identical storage history and condition.

The Vintage: Generosity Meets Grandeur While the 2021 vintage was defined by scarcity and "nervous" tension, the 2022 is a return to glorious abundance. It is a "solar" vintage that produced wines of incredible texture and weight. However, unlike the heavy 2018s or 2019s, the 2022 DRC Montrachet retains a surprising athletic freshness. It is a massive wine, coating the palate with dry extract, yet it finishes with a saline, crystalline lift that defies the warmth of the growing season.

Tasting Notes

  • Nose: Immediate and expressive. The bouquet is grand and sweeping, offering rich notes of white peach, quince paste, and lemon confit. The Domaine’s signature reduction—struck match, gunpowder, and crushed rock—is present but beautifully integrated into the fruit.

  • Palate: Full-bodied, oily, and viscous. This is a wine of immense power that stains the palate. Flavors of fresh hazelnut, acacia honey, and ginger are cut by a spine of chalky acidity.

  • Finish: An endless, savory finish that leaves a lingering impression of sea salt and limestone.
