Richebourg--Vintage 1990
Côte de Nuits, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
"High-toned fruit with fresh, bright blackberry fruit aromas and the barest trace of secondary character to the tight, very ripe, beautifully complex flavors. There is still quite a bit of tannin still to resolve though this has excellent density of extract and solid balance. Rich, long and impressive if not especially detailed. Another recent bottle tasted in Burgundy was fresher than the one at the big Richebourg retrospective held in '01. A very impressive effort that will live for decades. Consistent notes."
