Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)
Richebourg Pinot Noir
Awesome nose. Lots of sediment. Still tasted the pedigree. Nose better than the flavor profile...

May 2nd, 20151982 vintage. Pale ruby hue. Medicinal, cut cocaine, wild herbs, dried raspberry pieces. Fairly complex, mature. On the palate, high acidity, medium minus body, medium minus tannins - fine, medium concentration and medium plus finish. Not a huge amount of fruit here. But enjoyable. Won't benefit from further ageing.
