ready-improve2017 Vosne-Romanée, Les Rouges, 1er Cru Domaine Jean Grivot

This is an exceptionally generous Les Rouges, a higher vineyard whose wines can be a bit linear. Not that the terroir has been lost: there is a lovely detailed core to the wine, and Étienne perceives a hint of garrigue and mint among the warm berry notes. Drink 2022-2027.
