Histoire du domaine
The Hudelot-Noëllat estate was founded in 1962 by Alain Hudelot. Originally, its vineyard comprised, in particular, two plots located in Chambolle-Musigny. In the 1970s, the estate expanded thanks to the addition of vines from the family of Odile Noëllat, wife of Alain Hudelot. This family inheritance enabled the estate to acquire plots in the areas of Chambolle-Musigny, Vougeot, Vosne-Romanée and Nuits-Saint-Georges. The vineyard now covers 10 hectares and comprises fifteen appellations. Charles van Canneyt, grandson of Alain Hudelot and Odile Noëllat, took over the running of the estate in 2008. He personally oversees the winemaking process, which uses indigenous yeasts and barrel ageing. The estate’s landholdings are structured primarily around the GFV Hudelot Noellat, which is linked to members of the Hudelot and van Canneyt families.
Richebourg
Richebourg is both a Grand Cru appellation and a physically delimited climat of Vosne-Romanée, consisting of the lieux-dits Les Richebourgs and Les Véroilles ou Richebourgs. It occupies the foothills of the slope between 260 and 290 meters, on a gentle slope facing east. Its shallow, clayey, carbonate-rich soils with high iron oxide content rest on Bajocian marls and soft limestones, beneath a colluvial cover blending scree, clays, and silts.

Histoire de la parcelle
The name Richebourg is attested as early as 1512. The Abbey of Cîteaux owned vines on the site, probably since the 17th century, and contributed to its renown. Recognized among the finest crus in the classifications of the 18th and 19th centuries, Richebourg was extended in 1924 to include Les Véroilles sous Richebourg following an agreement between owners ratified by the Court of Appeal of Dijon. The appellation d'origine contrôlée was recognized on September 11, 1936, with the boundaries defined in 1924.
