Richebourg--Vintage 1964
Côte de Nuits, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Levels: 3cm and 3.5cm; two lightly bin soiled labels
"Of all the 1964s I tasted in December, 1991 this was the most classic expression of Pinot Noir. Less exotic and perfumed than the La Tâche, but more structured, the wine's pure black fruit, herb, and floral aromas dominated this sensationally rich, voluptuous offering. The finish still exhibits noticeable tannin and alcohol. This bottle was in extraordinary condition, giving support to the expression that there are no great wines, just great bottles." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, #80 (Apr 1992)
