Jean Grivot - Échézeaux 2021 (750ml)

Burghound 

"Riper aromas are comprised by notes of spiced plum, exotic tea, violet and a whiff of wood toast. There is again fine richness, volume and mid-palate density to the caressing but punchy and solidly powerful flavors that stain the mouth with sappy dry extract while delivering even better persistence on the balanced and built-to-age finale. An excellent Ech. (Drink starting 2036)  93-95 points"

Vinous

'"The 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet with vivacious red berry fruit, kirsch and orange zest, very well-defined and focused. Love the energy of this Echézeaux. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit struck through with shucked oyster shell that defined the finish. Wonderful length. Bon vin. (Drink between 2027-2048)  (94-96) points"

By Jasper Morris

"An attractive mid crimson. There is a light touch to the nose, not unexpected in Echezeaux. The fruit comes across a softer a little more evolved, more strawberry than raspberry. Some peppery notes behind, so one could have imagined whole bunch. Very nuanced, attractive if slightly less precise. This reminds me of the style of the 2000 vintage. Drink from 2028-2035.  92-95 points"
