Domaine Jean Grivot Clos de Vougeot is a Grand Cru red Burgundy from the Côte de Nuits. The 2012 vintage was produced from a 1.86-hectare parcel of vines situated in the Grand Maupertui and Petit Maupertui sectors of the vineyard. Étienne Grivot utilises a long, cool fermentation and approximately 40% new oak to create a wine of great elegance and longevity. The 2012 season yielded concentrated fruit with a high skin-to-juice ratio. This wine displays a complex profile of blackcurrant, truffle and savory herbs, all framed by the precise acidity typical of the Grivot style.

Dark red. Reticent but pure aromas of raspberry and crushed rock. Silky and sappy on entry, then suave and sharply delineated in the middle, conveying an impression of vigor to its perfumed flavors of dark fruits, minerals and noble herbs. Perfectly integrated ripe acidity contributes finesse. This very sophisticated Clos Vougeot delivers a compelling combination of gras and vibrancy. Really stains the palate and echoes on the aftertaste, with the firm tannins buried in fruit. A beauty.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2015

Reductive, slightly stinky nose. Lots of dark fruit. Forthright and powerful. Strong-armed. Impressive, but not yet nuanced. (RH)
