Note di degustazione
Anne Gros's 1996 Richebourg Grand Cru is still remarkably primary, offering up aromas of cassis, bloody duck, spices and dark berries, framed by a generous application of toasty new oak. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, firm and compact, with a chassis of fine but abundant tannin that makes the 1996 even tighter-knit than even the decidedly structural 1993 that preceded it. Given the high acids of the vintage and this Richebourg's extremely extracted style, it's anyone's guess as to when it will eventually be ready to drink, but it's a fine effort in its somewhat austere style.

This wine is also inky black-colored but its tightly wound blackberry, cassis, and mint scents are quite different from the Clos Vougeot's. Super-ripe cherries, black raspberries, and cassis are drenched in copious quantities of fat and round tannins in this blockbuster's flavor profile. This is an expansive, thickly-textured, full-bodied, highly-extracted, and awesomely powerful wine that impresses by its size, balance, density of fruit, and sublime length. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2012+. Aug 1998, www.robertparker.com
