| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nThe wine shows aromas and flavors of red berries, herbs, and purple flowers. The palate is rich with ripe fruit and medium weight with bright acidity and fine tannins. Enticing and intense aromas of black cherry, black currant, mint and spicy oak mark this rich red. It's open and inviting, with fine harmony and length.\u00a0Aging in up to 25% new Burgundian pi\u00e8ce brings notes of vanilla, toast, and baking spices.\r\nFood Pairings- Red Burgundy might be the world\u2019s most flexible food wine. The wine\u2019s high acidity, medium body, medium alcohol, and low tannins make it very food-friendly. Red Burgundy, with its earthy and sometimes gamey character, is a classic partner to roasted game birds, grilled duck breast, and dishes that feature mushrooms, black truffles, or are rich in umami.\r\nWine Spectator 93 Points\u00a0\r\nAbout Domaine Jean Grivot\r\nDomaine Jean Grivot is among the great names in Burgundian wine. \u00c9tienne Grivot and his wife Marielle (Patrick Bize's sister) took over from \u00c9tienne\u2019s father Jean Grivot in 1987. The Grivot family believes in generational change and in 2017, \u00c9tienne and Marielle\u2019s daughter, Mathilde, took over for her parents. Mathilde brings a fresh approach while maintaining the longtime traditions of the Grivot family.\r\nThe recently renovated winery and cellar is in Vosne-Roman\u00e9e where most of the Grivot vineyards are located. The domaine has been assembled over several generations to its current size of 15.5 hectares and includes holdings in three grand crus: Clos de Vougeot, Ech\u00e9zeaux, and Richebourg. Mathilde believes in getting quality first thanks to meticulous vineyard work throughout the year. The result of this hard work is healthy, ripe (both phenolic and sugar levels) and depth of concentration and flavor of the fruit. Today, the vineyards are densely planted and farmed organically \u201csans certification,\u201d while the aim in the cellar is for balance and clear expression of terroir. |
