A lovely offering from Domaine Albert Grivaut; a stellar estate that celebrated its 140th anniversary in 2019. This fascinating white Burgundy is mature and elegant on the nose, with a harmonious and rounded palate.

Vinous
The ripeness that Bardet referred to is in evidence here with strong honeysuckle and ripe peach and apricot notes followed by delicious yet entirely serious, mineral-suffused flavors that culminate in a finish that displays remarkable intensity, minerality and length. This is substantially racier than the villages with a tighter finish and it carries the ripeness gracefully. 89/2006-12 2001 Clos des Perrieres In contrast to the first two wines where the 2001 versions are clearly better than their 2000 counterparts, the 2001 Clos des Perrieres is not though there is not a material difference either. The nose is similar to the Perrieres with its strong honeysuckle and ripe peach aromas that lead to slightly more complex flavors that don't have quite the same level of precision and intensity. To be sure, this is a fine wine, just not as good as what I have come to expect from it.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2003
