Domaine Anne Gros Richebourg Grand Cru 2019
12 bottles to sell and that’s IT. How we got any is a miracle! 2019 is THE vintage to collect, hoard, drink and treasure. The mighty Richebourg, from a plot located in Les Verroilles ou Richebourg, just below the A.F. Gros rows and right above the DRC plot ($3,500+/btl.) and also adjacent to Leroy ($5,000+/btl.), which is just to the north! This is ground zero for the best pinot in the world! First come, first served!
Anne Gros’ Richebourg is a wine that the savviest of you buy every year. And if you are lucky enough to find any year in and year out, you’ll know that our price is as good as it gets. This will likely go on to trade closer to 4 digits per bottle if past vintages are any indication. Legendary in its power and ageability, we love the way that Anne explains her Richebourg: “...an extraordinary wine in that it combines power with supreme elegance. We often describe it as a peacock’s tail. The silky, velvetiness of the tannins is complemented by a minerality which adds powerful depth and makes this grand cru one of the most sensual and complex wines.”
Indeed -- this a treasure.
