The 2023 Mongeard-Mugneret Richebourg Grand Cru is a powerful yet finely detailed Burgundy Pinot Noir from one of Vosne-Romanée’s most celebrated Grand Cru vineyards. The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing layers of black cherry, wild raspberry and violet alongside notes of exotic spice, cedar, forest floor and subtle mineral complexity.
On the palate, it is concentrated and structured, with polished tannins, vibrant acidity and remarkable depth carrying through a long, persistent finish. The 2023 vintage delivers both richness and freshness, allowing the wine’s dark fruit, savoury nuance and limestone-driven tension to remain balanced and precise. Oak influence is integrated carefully, supporting the wine’s texture without overshadowing the vineyard character.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional cellar-worthy Burgundy for collectors seeking a serious expression of Richebourg with both immediate detail and long-term ageing potential. Best approached with extended decanting in its youth or cellared for further complexity over the next 15–25 years. A superb match for roast duck, Wagyu beef, game dishes or mushroom-based cuisine.
