The finest wines Mongeard produced in 1993 are the Richebourg and Grands-Echezeaux. The medium dark ruby-colored Richebourg displays a complex nose of flowers, red and black fruits, and high quality, smoky, toasty new oak. Although medium-bodied, with very good flavor extraction, the wine's shrill acidity and high tannin level kept my score low. Give it 2-3 years of cellaring and hope that the mid-palate and finish fill out. If they do, this may turn out to be an outstanding wine. It should last for 12+ years. Drink 1997-2007
Richebourg is one of the six Grand Cru vineyards in Vosne Romanée consisting of 8ha which is shared between 10 producers including Domaine de la Romanée Conti, Domaine Alain Hudelot-Noellat and Domaine Meo-Camuzet. Richebourg is based mainly on limestone deposits with some clay making the wines robust and voluptuous with a long life expectancy
