Remoissenet Père et Fils
Richebourg Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Vosne-Romanée, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Rim to rim unvaried. Cola color showing but maintaining red-garnet. Nose of baked plum with framboise liqueur, morel, black trumpet, black truffle, and portobello. A nuttiness trailing; pecan-hazelnut. Otherworldly mouthfeel for its age. Tart cherry, violets, lightning bursts of fungus, grilled earth, cedar and cinnamon sharpen onto a point of intense roobios. Dried raspberry, cherry and blackberry pop and drop. Insane.
How is this still kicking?

Incredible. Got better and better as the night went on

Feb 18th, 2018This 1957 Richebourg has been in the cold and damp cellars of Maison Remoissonet, deep under the strets of Beaune, since the days it was first bottled. During its many years of cellaring, it was never subjected to movement or noticeable temperature fluctuations and is, therefore, a pristine example of the wine that was bottle decades ago. It was pulled from their underground cellars and released in March, 2010.
The wine was uncorked among several other beasts, including La Tache, aged grand crus and 04's from Leroy, outstanding efforts from Jean-Yves Bizot, etc. And it was beautiful. Sublime, in fact. A wine that deeply impresses both mind and sense. Full of elegance and outstanding pinot noir expression.

Funky, earthy, forrest floor. Took about 45 minutes for funk to blow off and reveal some nice red fruits. Good wine but expected more
