Clos de Vougeot, Domaine Jean Grivot 2004

Tasting Notes

A reasonably ripe nose features earth and spice with a background note of crushed herbs complements the big, rich and youthfully austere flavors that are precise, bold, intense, powerful and chewy with an earthy, well-structured and impressively long if slightly edgy finish. This is not as generous as the Beaux Monts and will need time to round out as the austerity of the firm finale is positively Cistercian at present.
