Richebourg 2019 Jean Grivot

Professional reviews

Burghound (96)

An ultra-spicy, ripe, elegant and admirably pure nose offers up even fresher notes of dark berries, sandalwood and tea along with plenty of floral influence that includes violet, rose petal and acacia. There is outstanding richness and intensity to the wonderfully tension-filled full-bodied, concentrated and saline-inflected flavors that possess seriously good power on the tautly muscular finish that displays stunningly good length. This is very classy but also ultra-serious and this is very much a 'buy and forget you own it' jewel.

Jasper Morris (98)

Deep dense imperial purple. And what a sunburst of fruit on the nose! How to find the words, some raspberry, some strawberry, but each little note of fruit builds on the last, splendid balance. The structure is hidden behind, but there is enough acidity showing and very finely balanced tannins. This will make a very distinguished Richebourg.
