Domaine Jean Grivot Echezeaux Grand Cru 2005

Domaine Jean Grivot’s Echezeaux Grand Cru 2005 is a beautifully composed expression of Côte de Nuits, combining Grand Cru depth with the finesse and precision the domaine is known for. Sourced from the esteemed Echezeaux vineyard in the Les Cruots climat, this Pinot Noir reflects both the prestige of the site and the longstanding craftsmanship of the Grivot family.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright yet concentrated ruby hue with the graceful evolution expected from a mature Burgundian Grand Cru. The bouquet is layered and expressive, with red and dark cherry, raspberry, and cassis unfolding into violet, rose petals, forest floor, spice, tea leaf, light smoke, and a discreet touch of vanilla and toast from oak ageing. The palate is silky and harmonious, but with notable structure beneath the polish. Ripe fruit, fresh acidity, and fine-grained tannins create a wine of real tension and length, with enough concentration to continue developing nuanced earthy, savory complexity over time. The 2005 vintage’s natural concentration suggests excellent aging potential, though it is already offering considerable charm.

Production
This wine comes from the Echezeaux Grand Cru vineyard in Vosne-Romanée, specifically the Grivot family’s parcel in Les Cruots, close to Les Suchots. The site’s varied climats and old Pinot Noir vines contribute to the wine’s aromatic intensity, finesse, and sense of terroir, while careful harvesting and vinification are used to preserve purity, balance, and site expression.

Food & Serving
Serve this Grand Cru with refined dishes such as roast duck, pigeon, veal tenderloin, mushroom risotto, or dishes with truffle and earthy accents. A serving temperature of 16–18°C is ideal, and decanting for about 30–60 minutes can help open the wine’s aromatic layers, especially if served while still relatively youthful.

Producer
Domaine Jean Grivot is one of Vosne-Romanée’s most respected domaines, with a long family history and a strong reputation for producing wines of elegance, structure, and terroir transparency. The estate is particularly admired for its precise, balanced style across top Côte de Nuits appellations, and its Grand Cru wines are consistently recognized among the region’s benchmark expressions.
