An outstanding private collection.
Renaissance Vintners is proud to offer a superb collection of wines from Domaine Roumier, originally purchased by one of the UK’s leading wine collectors. The wines were purchased exclusively from UK agents of the Domaine and so are offered with impeccable provenance. The collection features full original cases of Grand Cru and Premier Cru in vintages from 2000 to 2007. All wines are offered In Bond and are available for immediate delivery or collection (subject to payment).
Renaissance Vintners believe the wines of Domaine Roumier are amongst the most exciting of all red Burgundies. Remarkably, they are accessible and delicious in their youth but reveal greater complexity, and give more pleasure when consumed mature. Even village wines from Roumier are often spectacular for up to twenty years after being bottled. For that reason we are not totally convinced that scores taken when these wines are tasted from barrel wines do them justice. An 87 or 88-point wine from Domaine Roumier frequently has an alchemy that many more highly rated wines lack – when you actually come to drink them.
Clive Coates MW sums it up beautifully in Côte d’Or, his definitive guide to the wines and Domaine of Burgundy: “In sum, this is one of Burgundy’s greatest domaines and Christophe Roumier is one of its most intelligent and knowledgable wine-makers. The combination of the two produces magic”
