Domaine Jean Grivot is one of those names in Burgundy that truly carries weight. Based right in Clos Vougeot, this family-run domaine turns out wines that speak clearly and confidently of their place — structured, age-worthy, and full of life.
Etienne Grivot has long been known for his forward-thinking approach, influenced early on by the legendary oenologist Guy Accad. That vision — respecting the environment while striving for purity in the glass — still drives everything at the domaine today.
With 15 hectares spread across 22 Апелясьйонів (including heavy hitters like Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Clos de Vougeot, Echézeaux, and Richebourg), Jean Grivot works entirely with estate-grown fruit. The vines average 45 to 50 years old, planted at a high density of 11,000 per hectare — a choice that encourages deep root systems, low yields, and maximum terroir expression.
No herbicides, minimal organic fertilisers, horse plowing, green harvesting — this is thoughtful viticulture at its best. It’s not just about sustainability; it’s about tuning in to each vineyard’s rhythm and letting the grapes tell their story.
From village to grand cru, every bottle from Grivot feels alive. There’s energy, tension, and always a sense of place — whether you’re opening a bottle now or laying it down for the next decade.
