2023 Jean Grivot Clos Vougeot
Secondary Description
Dark, powerful, imposingly stern and exotically spiced, this is very different from Grivot’s Vosne releases this year. A jet of power races through the mouth, long and serious. Definitely not open for business yet. Uncorked tasted a lot of good Clos Vougeot in 2023, but this is the best of all. A great vintage for a sometimes maligned grand cru. Give this some years in your cellar. (NT 06/12/24)

Mid crimson. A certain weight to the fruit but nothing flamboyant on the nose. This is tight on the palate too, predominantly strawberry fruit with some liquorice behind and more evident tannins, though nothing harsh. 93-95 points

The 2023 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a very succinct bouquet. It`s one of the cuvees from Grivot with what feels like darker fruit than others. This is beautifully defined, with hints of sea cave/oyster shell and a dash of black pepper that manifests with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and velvety smooth, with pliant tannins, moderate depth and orange rind, blood oranges and a hint of cardamom toward the finish. This is quite a complex Clos de Vougeot that should age with style. 94-96 points
