In the heart of the Burgundy vineyards, the Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2023, Domaine Jean Grivot embodies the art of nuance, that aesthetic of precision cherished by the great houses of the Côte de Nuits. Sourced from a legendary walled terroir, this Pinot Noir speaks to enthusiasts seeking contained emotion, clarity and depth. It answers the desire for a wine that combines immediate pleasure with future promise, offering a silky mouthfeel, measured intensity and a highly distinguished aromatic signature. The 2023 vintage expresses a luminous energy here, without ever breaking the harmony of the Grand Cru. The material becomes caressing, the aromatic palette unfolds with restraint and precision, and the finish gains in gravity and length. This bottle brings together lovers of refinement, collectors and gastronomy enthusiasts for whom every detail counts, from the first lift of aroma to the final persistence.

Assemblage et vinification

Made exclusively from Pinot Noir, this Grand Cru of the Côte de Nuits reflects the identity of the Clos de Vougeot AOC, one of Burgundy's most emblematic sites. The Grivot family seeks a clear expression of fruit, a faithful reading of the terroir and a texture that favours elegance. Elevage is managed with restraint to preserve freshness, relief and aromatic precision. Vinification emphasises purity, vintage coherence and balance on the palate. Each stage aims to define supple tannin grain, an aesthetic of finesse and aromatic integrity where ripeness yields nothing to verticality. The result is a complete wine, deeply Burgundian, capable of moving you in its youth while developing admirably over time.

Notes de dégustation

• Colour : Bright, clear ruby with precise radiance, a promise of concentration without heaviness.
• Nose : Nuances of orange zest and blood orange, lifted by a touch of cardamom. These are followed by delicate red fruit notes, rose petal and a hint of emerging undergrowth.
• Palate : Medium-bodied, velvety texture, supple and perfectly woven tannins. Balance between savoury density and airy freshness, with a harmonious, deep and very persistent finish.

Température de service et conseils

Serve between 15 and 16°C in large Burgundy glasses to reveal its aromatic grace and delicate texture. When young, prior aeration of 30 to 60 minutes refines the contours and opens the soft spices. Store the bottle lying down in a cool, steady cellar. The cellaring potential is long-term, with a preferred drinking window between 2027 and 2047, a period during which complexity deepens without losing freshness.

Accords mets et vin

• Refined starters : veal tartare with citrus, poultry cromesquis, poultry pâté en croûte with pistachios.
• Characterful mains : citrus duck, pink roast veal rack, spiced roast pigeon.
• Earth & mushrooms : porcini risotto with reduced jus and parmesan shavings, creamy polenta with chanterelles.
• Noble poultry : roasted poularde with jus, glazed root vegetables, red wine reduction.
• Cheeses : aged comté, brillat-savarin, and restrained servings of époisses to preserve the wine's finesse.
