A cool summer hindered a good grape harvest in Bordeaux and only the first growth and Grand Cru wines are now drinkable. It was a poor vintage for Red Burgundy and white Burgundy and also in the Cote du Rhone. In Portugal, a hot summer led to a very good vintage with all the major port houses declaring. Our wine buyer recommends either Vintage Port, Armagnac or Red Bordeaux wine for this anniversary year.

From the very good 1961 vintage, " I have been warned on several occasions to stay away from the slippery slope known as Grand Cru Burgundy. Tonight I slide further down the hill. I had never tasted a mature Richebourg before tonight. This producer is very "old school" which was fine with me. An "ah-so" removed the cork without incident. The color of the wine was ruby with only a slight amount of bricking at the rim. The nose was captivating from the start with mushrooms, damp earth, and a slight anise smell. Nice acidity and the typical earthiness you would expect was present on the palate. After about 30 minutes, a sweetness of fruit lingered in your mouth as the finish lasted a good 45-60 seconds. This is definitely a food wine and it paired absolutely beautifully with dry aged squab. In fact, this may have been the best pairing I have ever had with mature Burgundy (even better than duck). It took me over 15 years to achieve my Burgundy epiphany. I definitely should have listened to my many mentors and stayed far away from this devilish region. All I can say is it is now too late."(Wine Spectator forum notes) Drink now - 2034.Very bin soiled label.
