Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s holdings in Grand Cru Richebourg consist of two parcels, Les Véroilles and Les Richebourgs. These contrasting plots contribute their unique character to produce a wine with trademark power and concentration, but incredible finesse and freshness. 2001 was a complex vintage but rigorous sorting of fruit allowed for high quality wines to still be produced. This is an earlier drinking example of Richebourg and is best consumed in the next 2-3 years.

Vinous
In its youth, the 2001 was incredibly austere for years. Now, the fruit is starting to fade, while whole cluster inflections and potent tannins dominate. Maybe I have had bad luck. I will hold up hope of encountering a better example at some point in the future. This bottle is good, but it does not meet our expectations.Antonio Galloni1st October 2021
