Domaine Jean Grivot Echezeaux Grand Cru 1996 Magnum

Domaine Jean Grivot Echezeaux Grand Cru 1996 Magnum is a striking expression of mature Burgundy from one of Vosne-Romanée’s most respected estates. Sourced from the prestigious Echezeaux Grand Cru appellation and made from Pinot Noir, it combines depth, finesse, and the kind of complexity that has made Grand Cru Burgundy so highly sought after for generations.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep garnet hue with the kind of visual intensity that hints at its age and concentration. The nose is layered and expressive, opening with dark berries such as blackberry and blackcurrant, then unfolding into spice, earth, leather, tobacco, and gentle nuances of vanilla and toasted oak. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, beautifully structured wine with a poised balance of fruit, acidity, and mature tannins. The finish is long and persistent, carrying savory depth and evolving complexity. It still has excellent aging potential under ideal conditions, though it can already be enjoyed now for those who appreciate Burgundy with more developed, tertiary character.

Production
Produced in Burgundy’s famed Echezeaux Grand Cru vineyard, this wine comes from a terroir known for its ability to produce Pinot Noir with both elegance and power. The region’s limestone-rich soils and careful vineyard work contribute to the wine’s precision, while traditional vinification and aging in oak barrels help build texture, aromatic nuance, and depth.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for game, roast beef, lamb, duck, and richly flavored dishes with mushrooms or truffles. It also pairs beautifully with mature soft cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and decant for at least one hour before serving to allow the aromas and flavors to fully open.
