Domaine Jean Grivot Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Reignots 2008

Domaine Jean Grivot Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Reignots 2008 is a refined and highly sought-after Premier Cru from the northern edge of Vosne-Romanée. Planted just above the legendary Grand Cru La Romanée, this steep, stony site gives the wine striking mineral tension, precision, and a distinctive sense of energy.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Pinot Noir is typically translucent ruby with a subtle garnet rim as it begins to mature. The nose opens with red and dark berries—cherry, raspberry, and blackberry—layered with violet, rose petal, crushed stone, gentle smoke, and fine spice. The palate is sleek, vertical, and intensely focused, yet unmistakably Vosne in its sensuality. Tannins are firm but polished, acidity is lively, and the mineral backbone gives the wine exceptional length. With age, it can develop forest floor, exotic spice, and a deep, almost chalky finesse.

Production
Aux Reignots sits on a dramatic, high-altitude slope with poor, stony soils that naturally limit yields and concentrate fruit. Grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted before fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels, adding depth and structure while preserving the site’s clarity and mineral character.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast duck, squab, mushroom dishes, veal, or game birds such as pigeon or pheasant. Serve at around 15.5-17°C, and consider decanting for 30-60 minutes if drinking young to allow its aromatics and structure to open fully.
