I am surprised by how good the 2009 Richebourg is at this stage. Swaths of tannin frame an explosive core of fruit in a Burgundy endowed with a real sense of gravitas. The radiance and ripeness of the year has filled out the wine nicely, yet the 2009 remains a quintessentially powerful, substantial wine that will last decades. Although the 2009 is many years away from peaking, it is a real joy to catch it at this early stage.
The 2009 Richebourg opens with the most beguiling, exquisite aromatics imaginable, but then turns more austere on the palate as the tannins and structure assert themselves with authority. Still, there is a sensuality to the 2009 that is impossible to miss. Smoke, tar, cured meats and dark red stone fruit are some of the many nuances that emerge from the dense, layered finish. Far from an easygoing 2009, the Richebourg demands cellaring.
