Richebourg Grand Cru

Medium

Cork

A superb bottle of Richebourg, this shows concentrated cherry and cassis fruit, with a menthol and rose petal edge, plus just a bit of peppery spice. The wine shows remarkably fresh acidity (particularly given the vintage), but there is no lack of density or structure here. Lovely. The fruit is from the 0.6ha parcel in Les Varoilles and is fermented after a cold soak with 30-40% whole-cluster, then aged in new casks.
