Tasting Notes
Vinous 97
The 2010 Richebourg Grand Cru has an open, exuberant nose with dark berry fruit, bergamot, Earl Grey and crushed stone, seeming to "billow" with aeration. Fabulous delineation. It frankly puts all the preceding Richebourg wines in the shade. The palate is beautifully balanced and poised, finely tuned with a crescendo of red fruit and a perfect bead of acidity. This grips the mouth and doesn't let go, becoming more and more pixelated in the glass. Magnificent. Tasted at the Richebourg vertical dinner in Taipei.
Anticipated maturity: 2024-2050
