Note di degustazione
The 2007 Richebourg Grand Cru is a bit of a comedown after the '04. It looks more mature than '04 for a start. It begins well with an attractive nose, a mixture of red and black fruit, iris flower and a subtle estuarine scent. Modest delineation. The palate lets it down, light and meagre for a Richebourg, comparatively simple with tart red fruit. It attenuates towards the finish that feel a little dry, especially after the '00 and '04. Keep expectations modest. Tasted at the Richebourg vertical dinner in Taipei.

The Domaine de la Romanée-Conti's 2007 Richebourg Grand Cru is still a few years away from the beginnings of maturity, and while it's quite dramatic immediately after opening, offering up aromas of peonies, orange rind, red plums, raspberries and exotic spices, it becomes a little more aromatically reserved after a few hours. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and sumptuous, it's ample and fine-boned, with filigree tannins, bright girdling acids and a long, saline finish.
Bright medium red. Pungent aromas of wild strawberry, minerals, spices and pepper. Not a fat wine but classy and suave, with terrific peppery, minerally lift in the middle palate. With aeration, this classically dry wine showed a stronger soil component and mounting power. Finishes with superb breadth and an impression of weightlessness. I might have initially mistaken this for the RSV-and vice-versa-had I tasted these blind, but this is ultimately the more powerful wine.
