In 1988, when Domaine de la Romanée-Conti offered parcels in Vosne-Romanée for sale, the late Henry-Frédéric Roch - then co-director of DRC - chose to purchase them himself, marking the birth of Domaine Prieuré Roch. "The Priory Roch" (as he modestly named it, feeling "Domaine Roch" sounded too bold) grew through Roch's discerning acquisition of vineyards that spoke to him - sites with that indefinable "something special."
 
Inspired by his grandfather Henri Leroy - legendary founder of Maison Leroy and co-owner of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti from 1942 - Roch dedicated himself to crafting the purest, most natural expressions of Pinot Noir from Burgundy's finest terroirs.
 
The domaine's avant-garde philosophy is encoded in its logo, reflecting the visionary thinking of this Burgundian luminary. Their winemaking reveals an intimate connection between man, grape and terroir, where minimal intervention represents not passivity but the deepest respect for nature - preserving the unadulterated voice of the vines.
 
At "DPR," viticulture is strictly organic, working exclusively with old vines (30-100 years old). Harvests occur as late as possible in multiple passes to ensure perfect ripeness and grape health. The cellar follows natural principles: whole-bunch fermentation, foot-treading, no fining or filtration, and minimal sulphur. The results are wines of extraordinary aromatic complexity and energy, with vibrant acidity and layered fruit - delicious young but built for decades of aging. Stylistically unique and of outstanding quality, they are true to their exceptional terroirs.
 
A rare distinction in Burgundy, the domaine owns three prestigious monopoles: Clos des Corvées (5ha Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru), Clos des Varoilles (6ha Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru), and the jewel-like Clos Goillotte (0.55ha Vosne-Romanée) - once the private vineyard of the Prince de Conti.
 
With each vintage, Domaine Prieuré Roch strengthens its reputation as Burgundy's most authentic voice - ever-evolving with nature's rhythm. Today, winemaker Antonio Quari (trained under Roch and Yannick Champ) continues elevating quality while respecting the domaine's philosophy.
 
These are wines that speak directly to the soul, transporting us through time - a living embodiment of what the Romans called "vinum."
