I found this to be very much like the 750 ml with a gorgeous nose but seriously structured and wine for the very long term. The review from fifth is: This is still completely primary with a spicy and elegant red and black fruit nose followed by intense medium full flavors that possess a lovely core of complexity and superior length. Not as structured as the rest of the DRC '98s but there is enough material here to warrant 8 to 12 years of aging as the finish doesn't quite have the buffering material of the best in the range.

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti or simply “DRC” is without doubt the most famous domaine in Burgundy and one of the most famous producers on earth. The Grand Cru vineyard from which it takes its name produces the world’s most expensive wine by a long margin.
