Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Beaux Monts 2008 from Domaine Jean Grivot is a red wine from a vintage defined by its high acidity and mineral focus. Grivot is a master of structural precision, focusing on the distinct expression of each climat through patient maturation. The 2008 release offers a refined profile of red currants, forest floor, tobacco leaf and crushed stones. The palate is lithe and energetic with a firm tannic spine. It possesses a vertical structure and a long, savoury finish that reflects the limestone-heavy soils of the site.

Good full, bright red. Wonderfully aromatic nose offers raspberry, cherry, wild herbs, flowers, white pepper and cumin. Silky on entry, then gripping and sweet in the mid-palate; a distinct step up in intensity and plenitude from the village wines. The mounting, energetic finish really stains the palate. This needs time in bottle. Grivot compares his 2008s to vintages like 2006, 2001 and 1998.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2011
