Jean Grivot - Clos de Vougeot 2019 (750ml)

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 2019 Côte de Nuits Report (11/1/2020)
(Clos Vougeot Grand Cru, Domaine Jean Grivot, Red) Rich dense black purple. Powerful, brooding, not over heated, sweet dark strawberry, sucrosity that is balanced by the powerful framework of properly ripe tannins. Real energy here, darkly ripe fruit, and with good length.  94-97 points

JEAN GRIVOT

Clos de Vougeot 2019
95 points | $450 | 143 cases imported | Red

A dense, muscular red, delivering dark cherry and blackberry fruit shaded by mint, tar, toasty oak, earth, iron and tobacco. This has tannins that are present, if covered by the bright fruit and fleshy texture, which exert themselves on the long, spice- and iron-inflected aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2047. —B.S.

Burghound, Jan-21, Issue #81 (1/21/2021)
(Domaine Jean Grivot Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Red) A much earthier, riper and more deeply pitched nose speaks of black cherry, cassis and humus nuances. There is strikingly good volume and mid-palate concentration to the dense, serious and powerful flavors that conclude in an austere, balanced, very compact and sneaky long finish. This is a big Clos de Vougeot that isn't particularly refined, but it is undeniably impressive. (Drink starting 2036)  92-94 points
