Domaine Jean Grivot
Clos de Vougeot
Grand Cru
0,75
Red
Finally, after several years of small harvests, the Grivots had both quality and quantity in 2014. Healthy, pure Pinot grapes that were harvested under perfect conditions to produce a lovely wine that is forward and fresh but still has layers of complex flavours as it builds towards the very precise, elegant finish. Gaston Grivot bought this excellent, almost two-hectare parcel of 40-year-old vines in 1919. The Grivot Clos de Vougeot is one of the very best from this famous grand cru and has a brilliant dark intense purple colour, saturated, rich purple fruit with flavours of sloes, damson plums and ripe blackberries. Everything is in balance here, in spite of the density and power and although delicious to drink when young, it will probably be worth aging this wine for a decade or so to show its true potential.
