Montrachet, an Appellation d’origine contrôlée (AOC) and Grand Cru vineyard, produces white wine made of Chardonnay.
Furthermore, it lies in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy.
In addition, the vineyard straddles the border between the two communes of Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet.
As a result, many consider it to produce the greatest dry white wine in the world.
Moreover, four other Grand Cru vineyards surround it, all having “Montrachet” as part of their names.
Consequently, many wine enthusiasts generally consider Montrachet superior to its four Grand Cru neighbours.
Its higher price confirms this.

Tiny, at just 1.65 acres in size and with vines whose average age is 65 years, DRC produces an incomparable Montrachet.
Indeed, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti cultivates its oldest vines here.
Moreover, this wine provides a timespan of drinkability that is unmatched for white Burgundy.
Montrachet’s reputation is as the greatest dry white wine in the world, thus it has a lot to live up to.
However, this wine always shines, be it at six months from barrel or after 25 years in bottle.
Even with nearly 25 years of ageing, the DRC Montrachet 2002 retains an impressively rich, full-bodied structure.
It has aromas and flavours of limestone, apple, pear, and subtle spices with a hugely long finish.
Ultimately, the producers created only 2,321 bottles of DRC Montrachet 2002.
