2015 Richebourg Grand Cru
Domaine Meo Camuzet
75cl / 13%
A bottle of 2015 Richebourg Grand Cru from Domaine Méo-Camuzet.
The Richebourg vineyard is approximately eight hectares in total, divided between nine notable producers and responsible for producing around 26000 bottles in total per year.
'The 2015 Richebourg Grand Cru has an expressive bouquet, a little earthier than the 2015 Cros Parantoux, more reserved and statesmanlike, though at the same time it shows impressive clarity and gains stature with every swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with superb, quite robust tannin that lend this Richebourg the arching structure that can define this vineyard. There is some some new oak to be absorbed on the finish, but there is great density and length. Does it have the flamboyance of the Cros Parantoux? Let's see - my bets are with the premier cru at present. I suspect that this will be an imposing Richebourg with time, as Jean-Nicolas Méo himself commented'. 94-96 Neal Martin - The Wine Advocate, 30 December 2016.
