Reviewed January 2025An even bright ruby purple. In its youth, the 100% new oak shows a little, though well married with the fruit. There is darker fruit in the mouth, unexpectedly and perhaps a higher octane feel at 14.5%, with plums as well as berries in the fruit profile. There is definitely potential for further positive development here. Drink from 2033-2040. Tasted Mar 2025.
Take it home. Or give it a cellar.

Vinous
The 2023 Richebourg Grand Cru takes time to unfold on the nose and never quite reaches the heights of the previous vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with another toasty entry from the 100% new oak. This has fine weight and quite a lot of wood tannins, but it's difficult to discern the vineyard. This is a difficult Richebourg to read at the moment.(NM)

Note: from a .41 ha holding in the climat of Les Verroilles. This possesses the spiciest nose in the range with a wonderfully broad-ranging array of red and dark cherry, exotic Asian-style tea and a similar whiff of oak toast. The rich, powerful and quite serious larger-bodied flavors exude evident minerality on the powerful, muscular and lingering finale where touches of acid tang and warmth appear. I suspect that the acid tang will eventually dissipate as the high level of gas is regulated when the wine is racked for the bottling.
