The 2018 Richebourg Grand Cru is a little more backward than the premiers crus that preceded it, opening in the glass with notes of strawberry compote, cherries, raw cocoa, espresso roast and a lavish application of new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, rich and enveloping, with a textural, concentrated profile underpinned by succulent acids. My sense is that this will come together very positively with further élevage. There's certainly a sweetness to the fruit here that recalls Méo's very successful 2003 vintage, as well as the freshness and structure to ensure balance.

The 2017 Richebourg Grand Cru is also showing very well, bursting with aromas of plummy fruit, sweet spices, grilled squab, orange rind, dark chocolate and rose petals. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and layered, with an expansive attack, good depth at the core and fine-boned structuring tannins, concluding with a long, fragrant finish. It will be exciting to revisit from bottle.
