Richebourg in the estate’s vineyards

The estate owns 3.51 ha of Richebourg. It is not a monopole: only Romanée-Conti (1.81 ha) and La Tâche (6.06 ha) belong entirely to the estate. Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet already owned vines in Richebourg when he bought Romanée-Conti in 1869. As of November 2023, 0.8 ha in the Verroilles sector had been pulled out about four years earlier; half had been replanted and none of it was yet in the wine. The Côte de Nuits has 24 grand cru appellations. Six of them are in Vosne-Romanée, including Richebourg. The appellation was first recognised by the decree of 11 September 1936.

The estate makes between about 6,800 and 15,700 bottles of Richebourg per vintage. The vineyards have been farmed organically since 1985. The estate trialled biodynamic methods from 1990 to 2006, adopted them across the estate afterwards and obtained Biodyvin certification in 2016.
