Vintage Character Domaine Jean Grivot Vosne-Romanée 'Les Rouges' Premier Cru 2019 is a finely etched Pinot Noir from a premier cru site on the Vosne slope, offering a vivid, terroir-driven expression of this famed village. The 2019 vintage in Burgundy is widely regarded as excellent, with a warm, mostly dry growing season that delivered ripe, concentrated fruit yet preserved freshness and definition in the wines.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry and red plum mingle with violets and a touch of cranberry, layered over subtle oak spice, clove, vanilla and a hint of cocoa and forest herbs. The palate is medium to full-bodied yet poised, with refined tannins, vibrant medium-high acidity and a fine, precise texture that carries through to a long, mineral and gently spicy finish, where notes of sous-bois, dried rose and truffle can emerge with time in bottle. It is an elegant partner for roast duck with cherries, herb-crusted lamb, mushroom risotto or a simple roast chicken with thyme, highlighting both the wine’s intensity and its finesse at the table.
Winery Background Domaine Jean Grivot is a benchmark family estate in Vosne-Romanée, with roots in the region stretching back to the early 19th century and a reputation as one of the Côte de Nuits’ key references for pure, terroir-expressive Pinot Noir. Now led by Etienne and Mathilde Grivot, the domaine has been intelligently modernised over recent decades, with a focus on low yields, meticulous vineyard work and sustainable farming across their prized holdings in Vosne-Romanée and neighbouring communes. In the cellar, careful destemming, gentle extraction and judicious use of fine-grained oak emphasise finesse and transparency over sheer power, allowing each cru—such as the historic climat “Les Rouges”—to speak clearly of its origin and the subtle nuances of site, vintage and élevage, and helping to cement Jean Grivot’s status among Burgundy enthusiasts worldwide.
