The estate and the wine |
|
|
A Burgundy gem, Domaine Albert Grivault stands as an undisputed reference in the Côte de Beaune. With prized holdings in some of the region’s most prestigious terroirs, the estate elevates every wine with masterful precision. Here, the wines don’t just reflect their appellation—they surpass expectations, often rivaling the finest Grand Crus.
Despite its soaring reputation, the domaine has kept its prices remarkably reasonable, protected from market inflation thanks to its family-owned vineyards. Unsurprisingly, demand far exceeds supply every year, making these bottles all the more coveted. |

Sourced from 89 ares of sandy clay and stony soils, the 2022 Red Pommard 1er Cru Clos Blanc carries a unique history—it was originally planted with white grapes, hence its name! Today, with Pinot Noir thriving in this exceptional terroir, it produces a structured, age-worthy Pommard, carefully matured in oak barrels. This distinctive climat lends the wine an added layer of finesse, setting it apart from its peers with remarkable precision and purity. Whether enjoyed in its youth or after years of cellaring, it promises to impress at any stage. |
