Note di degustazione
Medium red. Distinctly darker on the nose than the RSV, offering scents of blackberry, boysenberry, violet, smoky minerals and spicy oak. Sappy, saline, broad and classically dry; distinctly thicker and more backward than the RSV, with its soil character currently dominating its primary fruits. Superb volume here but rather uncompromising today; this wine will need a long time to emerge from its shell. Finishes with hints of chocolate and mint. The RSV shows more oaky sweetness but this wine is more profound. (Incidentally, when I tasted the 2014s from bottle at Hudelot-Noëllat in late 2015, this wine showed more high-toned lift and early personality than the Romanée-Saint-Vivant, but then Charles van Canneyt has been telling me for years that these two grand crus are constantly "changing their position in the cellar" during their élevage .

The 2014 Richebourg Grand Cru has a fabulous bouquet: complex and profound, quite floral in style with wonderful intensity. The palate is medium-bodied, more masculine than the Romanée-Saint-Vivant and perhaps without quite the same riveting tension and detail. That said, it comes across as extraordinarily fresh and vibrant, with hints of undergrowth and smoke towards the structured and masculine finish. It will need a few years to really settle into its groove, but it will surely evolve into a tremendous Richebourg.
Bright, full red. A sexy hint of reduction blows off to reveal aromas of dark raspberry, mocha and licorice. A bit more red fruit than black on the palate, and displaying considerably more mineral and floral lift today than the RSV. This superb, silky, soil-driven wine conveys both power and finesse, not to mention outstanding energy and concentration. Finishes very long and vibrant, with a lingering note of brown spices. Seems a bit higher-toned than most of the rest of these 2014s, which gives it a flamboyant early personality, especially in the context of this long-aging grand cru. Splendid potential here.
