1945 RICHEBOURG VIEUX CÉPAGES
Just a single bottle of 1945 Richebourg is rare enough. What, then, is that other descriptor, the vieux cépages, that qualifies this lot? Once upon a time, DRC made two cuvées of wine from Richebourg. The one on offer here is from old vines-those from ungrafted vines unaffected by phylloxera. The rarity of this wine is extreme, and its elegance (as reported by those lucky enough to have tasted it) is off the charts.
