About this wine

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is probably the most frustrating, and at times infuriating, wine grape in the world. However when it is successful, it can produce some of the most sublime wines known to man. This thin-skinned grape which grows in small, tight bunches performs well on well-drained, deepish limestone based subsoils as are found on Burgundy's Côte d'Or. Pinot Noir is more susceptible than other varieties to over cropping - concentration and varietal character disappear rapidly if yields are excessive and yields as little as 25hl/ha are the norm for some climats of the Côte d`Or.

Richebourg

Richebourg

Richebourg, a prestigious winemaking region in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, holds the distinguished Grand Cru classification, renowned for exceptional Pinot Noir wines. Its diverse terroir with limestone, clay, and marl soils contributes to the wines' complexity. Highly esteemed for elegance and depth, the wines age gracefully, gaining complexity over time.
