September 24, 2006 - If I had known what I know now about this wine I wouldn't have ordered it. We had it decanted and drank a delicious 88 Gaunoux as we waiting for this to come around. Never did. There was an extreme vegetal quality on the nose and palate that eventually became sort of a vegetal/smoky quality. Not particularly long or interesting to taste, this was a disappointment. One of our fellow diners had had a delicious 97 DRC Grands Ech a year ago so I guess we were hoping for a similar experience with the Richebourg. The wine isn't completely without merit but definitely not worth the tariff.
