Under two hectares of Vosne-Romanée hillside, held by one owner, producing about 3,500 bottles a year. No other patch of ground in wine carries this much argument per square metre.

Nobody has published this one's days where this project could read them. That is a gap here, not a locked door — write ahead, and see the finder for the cellars that do publish.

The story Cited

Louis François de Bourbon, prince de Conti, bought it in 1760 through an agent and kept the wine for himself; the name stuck. It survived phylloxera on ungrafted vines until 1945, when the harvest fell to about 2.5 hl/ha and 600 bottles, and the vineyard was pulled and replanted.
