Recycling Romanee-Conti series

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC) stands at the pinnacle of Burgundy, with its flagship Romanée-Conti producing only about 5,000-6,000 bottles annually. The global allocation system means most collectors can only purchase "assortments" (L'Assortiment). Hong Kang Commercial specializes in acquiring the full range of DRC — from the flagship Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, Romanée-Saint-Vivant, Grands Échezeaux, Échezeaux, to the unique white wine, Montrachet.

4 Key Points for DRC Valuation

  1. Assortment vs. Individual Bottles: An original 12-bottle wooden case (including 1 RC, 3 La Tâche, and other Grand Crus) fetches a much higher price than the sum of individual bottles. The premium for a complete set can be 15-30%. It is recommended not to separate them for sale.
  2. Label Serial Number: Each DRC bottle has a unique serial number (embedded under the label), which must be checked during verification. Blurry or scratched numbers may raise doubts about authenticity.
  3. Cork: DRC uses longer corks (54mm) than average, which aids in long-term aging. A loose or leaking cork will raise questions about storage conditions.
  4. Lalou Bize-Leroy Era (1974-1992): During this period, Madame Leroy and Aubert de Villaine co-managed DRC, and collectors particularly value vintages from this era.
