{"product_id":"2011-mongeard-mugneret-richebourg-grand-cru","title":"2011 Mongeard-Mugneret Richebourg Grand Cru","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe 2011 Mongeard-Mugneret Richebourg Grand Cru is an exceptionally rare and powerful expression of one of Burgundy’s most legendary vineyards. Produced by Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret, a historic Vosne-Romanée estate whose family roots stretch back centuries, this wine comes from the tiny Richebourg Grand Cru appellation, celebrated for producing Pinot Noir of extraordinary depth, perfume and longevity. The domaine today farms around 30 hectares across many prestigious Côte de Nuits appellations, including Richebourg, Grands-Échezeaux and Échezeaux.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe 2011 vintage produced a Richebourg of remarkable concentration and restraint. Burghound awarded it 95 points, describing an intensely complex aromatic profile of exotic spices, flowers, red berries and tea, followed by powerful, compact and exceptionally persistent flavours. The review emphasised that this was a serious, tightly structured wine requiring substantial bottle age rather than an early-drinking Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe bouquet is now beginning to reveal the extraordinary complexity associated with mature Richebourg. Aromas of black cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry and preserved red fruits are layered with violet, rose petals, sandalwood, incense and exotic Asian spice. With extended air, deeper notes of musk, fine leather, forest floor, truffle, tobacco leaf and damp earth emerge. The wine’s aromatic profile is both powerful and ethereal: intensely concentrated yet remarkably lifted, with the exotic perfume and sensual complexity that distinguish great Vosne-Romanée Grand Cru. Richebourg is traditionally known for its richness, dark-fruited depth and notes of musk, leather and sandalwood as it develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOn the palate, it is full-bodied, dense and profoundly structured, with layers of black cherry, wild raspberry, dark plum and redcurrant supported by exotic spice, liquorice, earth and crushed stone. The tannins are substantial but increasingly refined after more than a decade in bottle, providing a powerful framework without sacrificing the wine’s velvety texture. Despite its concentration, the 2011 retains impressive freshness and precision, with vibrant acidity carrying the flavours through an exceptionally long, mineral-driven finish. This is not a delicate or immediately charming style of Burgundy; it is a monumental wine built around depth, structure and extraordinary persistence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eInfo\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMongeard-Mugneret\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2011\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Mongeard-Mugneret","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51537354490171,"sku":"MMRICH11F","price":3500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2011Mongeard-MugneretRichebourgGrandCru.jpg?v=1785896916","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2011-mongeard-mugneret-richebourg-grand-cru","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
