Jean GrosRichebourg1990
Cote de Nuits
u: less than 0.5cm, very lightly wrinkled label
Tasting note: "A very ripe though not stewed nose offers lovely spice, game and earth aromas that continue onto the big, rich and robust flavors that display ample muscle on the velvety and sweet finish underpinned by still firm but buried tannins. There is the barest trace of backend greenness though not enough to really detract from the overall sense of balance though it does prevent this from ascending to the ranks of the sublime. The '90 Richebourg will easily drink well over the next two decades and two bottles have showed much better than the one in the big Richebourg retrospective held in 2001." Burghound, 93 pts. 03/13
