Richebourg Anne Gros 2012 is a Grand Cru Pinot Noir from the Côte de Nuits. This bottling comes from the estate`s prized holdings in the northern part of the Richebourg vineyard. The 2012 growing season was challenging but resulted in wines of great concentration and purity due to low yields. Anne Gros employed a gentle extraction and matured the wine in 100% new French oak to balance the natural power of the site. It exhibits a deep ruby colour and an aromatic profile of black raspberries, peonies and exotic spices.

Aromas of dark chocolate, wild berries, plums, spices and grilled squab preface the 2012 Richebourg Grand Cru, a full-bodied, introverted and muscular wine that`s quite closed today, despite its ample core of ripe fruit, displaying racy acids and a generous endowment of fine, powdery tannins that make this vintage comparatively hard to read today.

Full medium red. Very subdued but pure aromas of black cherry, black raspberry, licorice and wild herbs. Wonderfully rich and dense yet somehow weightless; distinctly wilder than the Clos Vougeot, showing an almost liqueur-like ripeness but also strong acidity to its hard candy flavors. I don't find the Oriental spice character this wine typically demonstrates in the early going, but there's no denying this wine's density and powerful fruit. It will need substantial cellaring to achieve its adult harmony.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2015
