Which direction will the bright ruby-colored 1991 Richebourg take? At present, its dense pit fruit aromatics give way to a tannin-dominated core of exotic woods, spices, herbs, and cassis. This big, medium-to-full-bodied wine is hard, and ungenerous, but may yet blossom into something special.

A beauty of deep and dark color, sweet and ripe flavors. this has tons of fruit balancing nicely against the firmly structured tannins. Delicious currant, spice and ginger flavors go into a lush finish. Tempting now, but it should be even more harmonious around 2000.--Leroy vertical. 146 cases made.??–PM??Region: France / Burgundy / Richebourg Select to Add
