Richebourg Grand Cru 2002 Vintage Overview

2002 OVERVIEW

Graceful yet intense, the 2002 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Richebourg Grand Cru layers pure red cherry and plum fruit with hints of floral perfume and subtle earth, carried on a silky but firmly structured palate. The tannins feel extremely fine yet authoritative, giving shape to a long, resonant finish that shows both power and precision. This vintage stands out for its combination of energy, finesse, and depth that is only now entering a beautifully expressive phase.

About Richebourg Grand Cru

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s Richebourg Grand Cru is one of Burgundy’s most powerful and opulent expressions of Pinot Noir, drawn from DRC’s prime 3.5-hectare holding in the fabled Richebourg vineyard of Vosne-Romanée. Typically more muscular and voluptuous than the domaine’s Romanée-Conti, it marries intense, dark-fruited depth and rich, sinewy structure with a strong mineral imprint and remarkable longevity, making it one of the most coveted and age-worthy red wines in the world.
