Wine Diarist: Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 2009
Michael Steinberger has a blog post on 2009 DRC:
Aubert de Villaine was in New York two weeks ago to a host tasting of the 2009 vintage from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. It’s an annual event organized by DRC’s longtime U.S. importer, Wilson Daniels, and I’ve now had the pleasure of attending it twice. Truth be told, I would have traveled the two hours that it took me to get to New York even if there’d been no wines to taste; merely having the pleasure of de Villaine’s company would have sufficed. He is a remarkable man, whose wisdom about Burgundy, wine, and much else is immense. Back in 2009, I had the opportunity to spend a few days with him in Burgundy, and of all the experiences I’ve had as a wine writer, it’s the one I most cherish.
