Based in Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Jean Grivot is famous for producing deep and aromatic red Burgundy. The family-owned estate is currently run by Jean Grivot`s son Etienne and his wife Marienne, with the assistance of their daughter Mathilde and son Hubert. Their portfolio includes three Grand Crus. Richebourg, Clos de Vougeot and Echézeaux, where this particular release comes from. The 1996 vintage is in a good spot right now, delivering notes of baked cherries and mixed spices, complemented by high acidity.

Vinous
Deep red-ruby. Very subtle, classy aromas of cassis, raspberry, coffee, mace and cardamom. Velvety, sweet dark berry and floral fruit offers enticing sweetness with perfectly integrated balancing acidity. Really silky and mouthfilling. Explodes and persists on the very firm aftertaste. Like the Beaumonts, this is quintessential '96. Delicious.Stephen Tanzer1st March 1999
