Note di degustazione
While the 2011 Richebourg Grand Cru is superior to the domaine's 2004, it does share some of that wine's defects: an incipient peppery herbaceous character that grows more pronounced with time in the glass, a medium body and a rather firm, pinched finish. Given the quality of the site and the price that this wine commands, it's hard to recommend.

Medium red. Cherry and sweet spices on the fairly restrained nose, lifted by a floral topnote. Broad, sweet and sexy on the palate, with lovely finesse to the flavors of berries, spices and flowers. Really explosive on the ripe, spicy, seamless aftertaste. A beauty but does this wine have a hidden dimension?
Good bright red-ruby. Sexy aromas and flavors of black fruits, rose petal and spicy oak lifted by a peppery topnote. Densely packed, saline and firmly built, offering ethereal inner-mouth perfume and outstanding verve. Really spreads out and vibrates on the very long, chewy finish. Like the rest of this estate's 2011s, this is not a fat wine but offers superb energy and structure. And clearly the longest of these 2011s.
This is perfectly ripe with a pure nose of essence of wild red berry fruit that is liberally laced with earth, Asian spice and wet stone nuances. There is excellent volume to the solidly structured middle weight flavors that possess good maturity of the structural elements that shape the dusty, firm and persistent finish where a touch of wood can be discerned. Like the Echézeaux, this is on the lighter side for a Richebourg but this is not to say lacking in concentration but rather lightly extracted. Tasted: Jan 14, 2013. Drink: 2019+
