(92-95 points) A fresh mid purple. The bouquet is very distinguished, not too ripe, the main fruit is raspberry but properly nuanced. As with all the Grivot wines this year it starts nicely and then swells to an extra...

(91-94 points) A subtle if perceptible application of wood easily allows the markedly spicy plum and earth scents to be appreciated. The rich, delicious and caressing yet decidedly punchy middleweight flavors are also...

The 2021 Domaine Jean Grivot Nuits St Georges les Boudots is a distinguished Pinot Noir from the renowned Burgundy region of France, specifically from the Nuits St Georges appellation. This wine, produced by Domaine Jean Grivot, showcases the elegance and complexity expected from this prestigious vineyard.

The wine has garnered high praise from several well-respected reviewers. Vinous awarded it an impressive score of 94 points, noting that it has "a touch more fruit concentration on the nose than Grivot's other cuvées" and describing it as "medium-bodied, edgy and tensile, a little more angular than the Pruliers at the moment yet with plenty of energy on the finish. Very classy" (Vinous, 1/1/2023).

Jasper Morris from Inside Burgundy rated the wine even higher, with a score range of 92-95 points. He described the bouquet as "very distinguished, not too ripe, the main fruit is raspberry but properly nuanced." He appreciated the wine's development on the palate, noting that "it starts nicely and then swells to an extra dimension further back." Morris highlighted the persistence of the red fruit and a hint of clean white pepper, suggesting it is a fine wine to drink between 2028 and 2036 (Jasper Morris, 11/1/2022).

Burghound also rated the wine between 91-94 points, emphasizing the balance and complexity of its flavors. The review described "a subtle if perceptible application of wood easily allows the markedly spicy plum and earth scents to be appreciated." The wine's "rich, delicious and caressing yet decidedly punchy middleweight flavors" are supported by "relatively fine-grained tannins on the balanced, complex and lengthy finish." The review concluded that while the wine is not super-dense, it has an appealing mouthfeel and should be "reasonably approachable in its youth" (Burghound, 1/10/2023).

In summary, the 2021 Domaine Jean Grivot Nuits St Georges les Boudots is a Pinot Noir of notable sophistication and depth. With its complex nose, balanced palate, and elegant finish, it has received excellent reviews that underscore its quality and potential for aging.
