2011 vintage. Last of two, kept, bottles with two being gifted. Last tasted 7.21.25 (9.4) and 12.11.24 (9.4). PNP'd with very early Thanksgiving-styled fare. Great cork and fill and traces of sed. Tasted over the course of 1.5 hours. Still light-medium body. Very very nice but just missing that upper-level, loving touch exhibited in the last two bottles tasted in the last 11 months. If I came across another stash of this tho in the next decade, would likely pull the trigger. 11.6.25. — 8 months ago

Loved the whole cluster palate presence and sheer deliciousness. Not the most complex or balanced but it is successful. — 3 years ago

Charles Noellat 1976 Richebourg

Each bottle opened is one less in existence; without it, there would be no subsequent legends of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti or Henri Jayer.

Aged yet remarkably robust—it’s surprising how well this bottle has been preserved.

· After opening for half an hour: notes of honey, dried rose petals, and dried preserved fruits.
· After an hour: aromas of red dates, cinnamon, and a hint of spices.
· Overall impression: The fruit profile still dominates, with no woody notes emerging. The structure of Richebourg remains present, showing a rounded, ripe fruit character.

The year 1976 was renowned for its "hot, dry summer." The growing season offered ideal conditions—plenty of sunshine, high temperatures, and almost no damage from hail or other severe weather. These conditions led to perfect grape ripening. The wine is full-bodied and lush, with mature, soft tannins and very ripe, almost jam-like red fruit flavors (such as ripe cherry and strawberry jam). It still has aging potential, and this bottle retains well-balanced acidity.

What’s more, 1976 saw the famous "Judgment of Paris"—a tasting that broke the myth of the Old World’s invincibility, reshaped the hierarchy of the wine world, and established New World regions (especially California) on the international stage. It truly shows how fascinating blind tastings can be!

Next time, I’d love to try a 1976 California wine and compare the experience. — 9 months ago

Initially quite reduced and aromatically closed but eventually opens up to reveal its Vosne perfume. The palate is impeccable though, with excellent density and richness, succulent fruit and acids and a long saline-mineral finish. — 7 months ago

Drawn back to this Vosne Romanee by a producer family we have tried before (Noellat). Did not disappoint with the usual red currant aromas, overly ripe strawberries in a jammy flavor.

2018 was a troublesome vintage and a test for being a good producer. This is how I found Hudelot-Noëllat. The new vintage is different, especially in terms of acidity and volume. Beautiful bouquet: cherry, milk chocolate and wet leaves. Fresh, juicy, well-balanced, round, elegant, but still too young. — 4 years ago

The last bottle of my 2012 Vosne Romanée from Alain Hudelot Noëllat and its a wonderful show that it manage to put up. Like a grand dame in its golden years bit with a hell of a spirit its displaying evolving characters of dried strawberries, rose petals, blood orange and menthol that is backed up by a prominent choir of nutmeg, clove, truffles, wet stones and forrest floor. Fresh palate with very present but smooth tannins, an expansive palate as the encore slowly fades out in a very respectful and balanced finish.
Day 2 tasting and its pumped up, more nuanced, defined and dresses up to its teeth in elegance. The last bottle of six will leave its mark for sure. Divine! — 6 years ago
