Jean Grivot Echézeaux 2005 is a full-bodied Burgundy red wine from the Grand Cu climat of Echézeaux in the Vosne-Romanée commune of the Côte de Nuits. Based in Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Jean Grivot is famous for producing deep, aromatic red Burgundy. The family-owned estate is currently run by Jean Grivot`s son Etienne with his wife Marienne, daughter Mathilde and son Hubert. This is the domaine`s Grand Cru Echézeaux from the stellar 2005 vintage. "This concentrated beauty remains very primary with an herbal top note adding lift to the notably ripe and ultra-spicy black fruit and earth suffused aromas. There is seriously good density to the impressively scaled and imposing big-bodied flavours that brim with dry extract on the palate coating, powerful and powerful finish that goes on and on. This is a very structured wine that is clearly built for the very long haul and I wouldn`t recommend touching a bottle for at least another decade. In sum, this offers stunning potential but in a package that is still years away from being ready. Tasted twice in the last few years with pretty consistent results." Burghound, 2015
