Terroir
Richebourg sits just north of Romanée-Conti and Romanée-Saint-Vivant, on a mid-slope band of deep clay over a limestone base. This unique soil composition, combined with its exposure, yields wines of immense power, richness, and age-worthiness. Gros’s parcel lies within the heart of the appellation, where the vines dig deep into poor, stony soils, concentrating fruit intensity and mineral drive.
