History of Domaine Jean Grivot

The history of Domaine Jean Grivot begins in the Jura, where the family cultivated the vine as far back as the 17th century. The decisive turning point came at the end of the 18th century, when Joseph Grivot settled in Vosne-Romanée, at the heart of the Côte de Nuits, just before the French Revolution.

It was Gaston Grivot, son of Joseph, who established the prestige of the estate. In 1919, he acquired a major plot in the mythical Clos de Vougeot, one of the most celebrated Grands Crus of Burgundy. A visionary, he had a magnificent entrance gateway erected to his vines, which is still visible today. A pioneer, he became one of the first qualified oenologists from the University of Dijon in the 1920s.

In the 1930s, the Grivot family distinguished itself by being among the first in Vosne-Romanée to bottle and market its own wines, breaking with the tradition of selling to négociants. This approach enabled the estate to maintain full control over its quality and to build its reputation.

Jean Grivot perpetuates the family legacy with determination. In 1984, he acquired 31 ares in the prestigious Grand Cru Richebourg, consolidating the viticultural heritage. His rigorous work has made the estate a worldwide reference.

In 1982, Étienne Grivot joined his father and became the fifth generation at the helm of the estate. He assumed full responsibility in 1987, alongside his wife Marielle. Inspired by the great vintages of 1929 and 1937, Étienne observed the impoverishment of the soils caused by the excessive fertilisation of previous decades. He then devoted himself to restoring the vitality of the terroirs in order to recapture the depth of the great wines of former times.

Since 2010, Mathilde and Hubert Grivot, the sixth generation, have been working alongside their parents. Mathilde, trained in viticulture, oenology and international business, has completed internships in Bordeaux and Oregon. She brings a new energy while respecting the family philosophy. Together, this intergenerational team is evolving the style of the wines towards greater depth and richness, while preserving the freshness that is characteristic of the estate.

Terroirs and Vines of Domaine Jean Grivot

The vineyard of Domaine Jean Grivot extends over 15 hectares divided into small plots covering 22 appellations. This mosaic of exceptional terroirs illustrates the Burgundian adage that "what is small is beautiful". The estate owns vines in Vosne-Romanée, Vougeot, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Flagey-Échezeaux and Chambolle-Musigny.

In Vosne-Romanée, the heart of the estate, the soils display a predominantly marly-calcareous composition enriched with red clays whose colour derives from their high iron oxide content. This composition endows the wines with exceptional mineral elegance and a silky tannic structure.

The three Grands Crus are the jewels of the estate. The Clos de Vougeot (1.87 hectares) extends from the lower section up to the Château de la Tour, crossing several geological strata. The fifty-year-old vines benefit from a privileged location within this mythical clos created by Cistercian monks. The Richebourg (31 ares), acquired in 1984, produces wines of unparalleled depth and complexity. The Échezeaux (0.84 hectares) is located in the climat des Cruots, planted in 1954.

Among the Premiers Crus, the estate owns six climats in Vosne-Romanée (Les Beaux Monts, Aux Brûlées, Les Suchots, Les Rouges, Les Chaumes, Aux Reignots) and three in Nuits-Saint-Georges (Les Pruliers, Aux Boudots, Roncière). Each one expresses a different facet of its original terroir.

The average age of the vines reaches 45 to 50 years, with certain plots counting vines of more than sixty years old. This maturity guarantees concentration and complexity. The high planting density encourages competition between vines and deep rooting, naturally producing low yields.

The estate practises a viticulture guided by biological research without official certification. Treatments favour biological solutions, organic fertilisation is kept to a minimum, and no herbicides are used. The entire vineyard is ploughed, with three hectares worked using the horse Pirate to minimise soil compaction. Green harvesting and light leaf removal optimise ripening. This meticulous work forms the foundation of the wines' exceptional quality.

Winemaking at Domaine Jean Grivot

The winemaking philosophy rests on a fundamental principle: to reveal the authentic expression of each terroir. The estate adapts its interventions to the profile of each vintage rather than applying a single recipe, favouring a harmony between energy and suavity.

The harvest is entirely manual, at the optimal moment of ripeness. Destemming at 95% almost completely removes the stems to promote tannic finesse. After careful sorting, the berries undergo a cold maceration of one to two days before fermentation.

Fermentation begins naturally with indigenous yeasts, respecting the microbiological identity of each plot. A few gentle punch-downs precede fermentation, but Étienne Grivot refuses any punch-downs thereafter, not wishing to "mix the physical with the spiritual". Maceration lasts approximately seventeen days with delicate pump-overs once a day.

Ageing takes place in French oak barrels for fifteen to eighteen months, using wood from the Allier and the Nièvre. The proportion of new barrels varies according to the appellation: approximately 25% for village wines, 30 to 60% for the Premiers Crus, and 40 to 70% for the Grands Crus.

After blending in vat, bottling takes place without fining or filtration, fully preserving the aromatic richness and ageing potential. The estate vinifies exclusively its own production, guaranteeing traceability and absolute quality control. Bottling even takes into account lunar cycles and barometric pressure, reflecting a holistic approach in which every detail matters.

The cuvées of Domaine Jean Grivot

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Beaux Monts

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Beaux Monts ranks among the most prestigious climats of the appellation. This cuvée offers a magnificent, complex nose and a scintillating palate of crystalline purity, underpinned by a precise and voluptuous oak influence. The balance between power and elegance makes it a wine capable of rivalling certain Grands Crus. Ageing potential: twenty to thirty years.

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Brûlées

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Brûlées takes its name from the burnt, toasted character of its terroir, which faces due east. This climat produces wines of remarkable depth, with a captivating aromatic intensity blending black fruits, gentle spices and smoky notes. The dense texture and refined tannins promise a long evolution in the bottle.

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Suchots, situated near the border with Échezeaux, benefits from an exceptional terroir. The vines planted in 1954 lend this wine an extraordinary concentration and complexity. The nose reveals elegant aromas of red and black fruits, while the palate is seduced by its silky volume and its persistent finish with liquorice accents.

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Chaumes expresses a warm and enveloping personality. The mellow, spiced notes unfold generously, offering a rich and nuanced tasting experience that evolves beautifully with ageing.

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Rouges is characterized by its vivacity and mineral freshness, with fine tannins and a refreshing acidity that carry the wine towards a long, saline finish.

Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Reignots completes the collection of Vosne-Romanée climats with its spiced character and elegant tannic structure.

Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Les Pruliers represents one of the finest climats of Nuits-Saint-Georges. According to tasters, this cuvée has never been so precise and expressive, carried by a tannic framework that is almost unctuous, rich and well-integrated. Aromas of black fruits mingle with notes of forest undergrowth and spices, creating a fascinating complexity. This exceptional wine for ageing improves over twenty-five to thirty-five years.

Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Aux Boudots

Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Aux Boudots, situated on the border with Vosne-Romanée, shares certain characteristics with its prestigious neighbour while retaining the virile structure that is typical of Nuits-Saint-Georges. This duality makes it a particularly interesting wine, combining elegance and power.

Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Roncière

Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Roncière expresses the earthy and mineral character typical of Nuits-Saint-Georges with remarkable depth and exceptional ageing potential.

Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru

Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is undoubtedly the most celebrated cru in Burgundy. The Grivot plot of 1.87 hectares, planted with fifty-year-old vines, produces a wine of great integrity and extraordinary complexity. The mellow, spiced notes unfold majestically, offering a myriad of invigorating and nuanced flavours that evolve continuously throughout the tasting.

Échezeaux Grand Cru

Échezeaux Grand Cru embodies absolute refinement. This serene and penetrating wine is endowed with an extraordinary energy. Its imposing stature nonetheless yields to the finesse of its shimmering fruit and its liquorice-tinged, juicy finish.

Richebourg Grand Cru

Richebourg Grand Cru represents the pinnacle of the estate's production. This 31-are plot, acquired in 1984, produces one of the most sought-after wines in Burgundy. The aromatic complexity reaches dizzying heights, with successive layers of black and red fruits, precious spices, dried flowers, truffle and forest undergrowth.

Since the arrival of Mathilde and Hubert in 2010, the style of the wines has evolved towards greater depth, richness and precise maturity, while preserving the freshness, vivacity and ageing potential that are characteristic of the estate. The cuvées now offer greater silkiness and volume, reflecting an increased precision in both vineyard and cellar work.
