DRC Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Richebourg is a medium-bodied Grand Cru Burgundy with a vivacious bouquet of red cherries, crushed strawberry, and pressed rose petals. The palate offers spicy, white pepper-tinged notes, hints of black truffle, and dark berry flavors, supported by superb backbone, density, and an extraordinarily long, estuarine-like finish. Rated 96 by Wine Advocate, this vintage is age-worthy and will develop beautifully from through 2050.

Description
Wine Advocate Review Rated 96 The 2014 Richebourg Grand Cru was picked on 20 and 21 September at 29.75 hectoliters per hectare. This has a gorgeous, flamboyant, vivacious bouquet with blossoming red cherries, crushed strawberry, less undergrowth scents compared to the showing in barrel, replaced by pressed rose petal notes. There is wonderful delineation and exuberance here. The palate is medium-bodied with a lively, spicy, white pepper-tinged entry, just a faint hint of black truffle tincturing the dark berry fruit. There is superb backbone and density here, a Richebourg delivering on its promise from barrel, plus it comes armed with an extraordinarily long aftertaste that evokes marine-like images, something wild and estuarine. While not as flattering as the Romanee-Saint-Vivant at the moment, just wait ten years. 1,160 cases produced. Drink 2020-2050. Tasted February 2017.
