Af Gros Richebourg 2017

Domaine A.-F. Gros Richebourg Grand Cru 2017 is an exceptional Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy's most prestigious Grand Cru vineyards. Complex aromas of vibrant red cherry, raspberry, crushed stone, violets and subtle spice unfold into a beautifully layered palate with silky tannins, remarkable freshness and outstanding persistence. Elegant and powerful, it offers exceptional ageing potential. 
 
Food Pairing: Pairs best with beef Wellington, roast duck, venison, truffle dishes or aged Comté cheese.

96 Points - Jasper Morris

Medium deep purple, clear, rich dense fruit, fully ripe, but happily still nicely poised. The fruit on the palate is in a fresher red mode, beautifully balanced by the acidity and the finish is very persistent. I like the interplay between ripe fruit and fresher notes.
