Domaine Jean Grivot Échézeaux Grand Cru 2021 – Côte-de-Nuits’ Velvet Power Play

Tasting Notes

Here’s the skinny: the 2021 Échézeaux glows with lively red berries, kirsch, and a wink of orange zest, all sharply focused and vibrant. It doesn’t just taste—it performs with mineral energy, while oyster-shell undertones linger into the finish. Think freshness wrapped in profound Burgundy elegance.
The palate is balanced and medium-bodied with bright acidity, fine-grained tannins, and an earthy, refined finish that invites you back for more
