  • Goedhuis, November 2018

    Shining purple colour. This is already a very open and expressive Richebourg, without its characteristic youthful shyness. An absolute showstopper, succulent and juicy with layers of ripe summer pudding fruits. Amazing intensity, it is like a tightly coiled spring waiting to be released. Totally complete as a wine, rich in fruit, intense in flavour, and tight in tannic strength. Superlative.

  • Neal Martin, January 2019, Score: 93-95

    The 2017 Richebourg Grand Cru has a beautiful bouquet, very succinct and understated for a Richebourg and oh so precise. The palate is medium-bodied with strict tannin, a pinch of black pepper and bay leaf, and much more vibrant toward the finely structured finish. This is masculine and introspective, a Richebourg that will require considerable aging. At least at this stage, I feel the Romanée-Saint-Vivant has more charm and complexity. 2025 - 2045

  • Burghound, January 2019, Score: 93-95

    An exotic and ultra-spicy nose features notes of plum, violet, orange pekoe tea, sandalwood, anise and an interesting hint of clove. The intense, muscular and driving large-scaled flavors possess unusually good concentration in the context of the 2017 vintage while exhibiting an almost pungent minerality on the austere, backward and very tightly wound finish that just goes on and on. This built to age effort is already a knock out and if it can add even more depth with time in bottle, it could potentially be brilliant. Drink 2034+

  • Wine Advocate, January 2019, Score: 93-95+

    The king of the cellar is the 2017 Richebourg Grand Cru, a brooding wine that unfurls in the glass with notes of raspberries, candied peel, exotic spice, Asian plum sauce, dark chocolate and rose petals. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, its fine structuring tannins entirely cloaked in fruit, displaying more depth and incipient complexity than the Romanée-Saint-Vivant, concluding with a long, succulent and beautifully delineated finish. This is a very compelling Richebourg from the talented Charles Van Canneyt.

  • Decanter, November 2018

    This 0.29ha parcel was planted (or replanted) in two stages - the 1930s and 1978 - so it has a high average age but plenty of concentration and complexity. It's one of my red wines of the vintage in 2017, with a heavenly perfume, lovely wild strawberry and summer orchard scents, fine-grained tannins, some sweet spices and refreshing minerality. Stunning. Drink 2023-2035

The Hudelots are an ancient Burgundian family whose ancestry can be traced back to Chambolle since before the French Revolution. Needless to say, wine has been in their blood for almost as long. Alain Huedlot began his wine career in 1954 working for his father and other local growers. At the ripe young age of 20, he started renting vineyards from his family in Chambolle Musigny until eventually receiving other small parcels from his father. Following a passionate and whirlwind romance with the granddaughter of Charles Noellat, he married despite protests from her family. This controversial union ensured additional vineyards despite a harrying and lengthy legal battle. Today the domaine owns a total of 10 well-situated hectares, which are split over 5 communes. Alain Hudelot’s grandson Charles Van Canneyt is a man on a mission. Having arrived at the domaine from Champagne only six years ago, he is already considered one of the brightest young talents in the region. These wines are wonderful examples of traditionally styled Burgundy - superbly pure and focused with an undeniable sense of terroir.Read less
