Jean Grivot, Echezeaux 2011

The Echezeaux 2011 from Grivot is another succes from his plot in the climate Les Cruots. The bouquet is open and ready to rock with a lovely stony minerality, crisp red berry fruit and some lovely spicy notes. On the palate lovely juicy fruit with a intense and quite muscular mineralic framework. Impressive midpalate intensity – and a long mineral infused finish. This is a true terroir wine – and one of the best wines made from Echezeaux in 2011.

(Drink from 2022) – Very Fine 94p – Tasted 18/03/2013 in Vosne-Romanee
