Jean Grivot Richebourg 2017 750mL

"The 2017 Richebourg Grand Cru sports an intense nose of mulberry, dark plum, sous-bois, fern and incense. This is complex and involving, and quite mercurial in the glass. Returning to the wine after 15 minutes, it develops a subtle minty aroma. The palate is velvety-smooth with enormous depth. A little more lush than its peers, it offers extremely pure red cherries, wild strawberry and blood orange toward a dried blood and spicebox-tinged finish that fans out gloriously. Just a wonderful wine." - Vinous, AG96 (NM), tasted 9/2021
