Jean Grivot Description
Domaine Jean Grivot is among the great names in Burgundian wine. Étienne Grivot and his wife Marielle took over from Étienne’s father Jean Grivot in 1987. The vineyards are densely planted and farmed organically “sans certification” while the aim in the cellar is for balance and clear expression of terroir.
Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Charmois is a lieu-dit sitting on the south side of the combe behind the town with a northeast exposition. Les Charmois ripens later and displays pretty fruit character with pronounced earthiness and is firmly structured.
The palate is rich with ripe fruit and medium weight with bright acidity and fine tannins. Aging in up to 25% new Burgundian pièce brings notes of vanilla, toast, and baking spices.
Vinous: 91-93 Points
The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Charmois is a little deeper in colour than the Aux Lavières. Dark berry fruit commingles with tea leaf on the nose that gains intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with fine definition, more substance here than the Aux Lavières with a sappiness that urges another sip. Quite precise.
