Richebourg, Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur 2009

**Note: from a .7 ha parcel that was partially replanted in 1985 and the remainder in 1989**
A restrained but elegant and very floral nose also speaks of red currant, plum, blue berry and hoisin is trimmed in a relatively curtailed application of oak. The equally reserved but powerful and big-bodied flavors brim with dry extract that renders the dense tannins less obvious than they would otherwise be on the firm and hugely long finish. This is a big but classy effort that should require around 15 years to arrive at its full majority.
