The pride of Burgundy, Domaine Albert Grivault reigns unequivocally over the Côte de Beaune. While it owns royal shares in the best terroirs, each cuvée benefits from virtuoso vinification. The wines produced here - alas, in small quantities, as the estate covers only 6 hectares - far exceed the standards of their appellations, even overshadowing a number of grands crus...

The opportunity to buy a few bottles today has become quite rare, as the wines are difficult to access without allocation... Grab the very last bottles of the great 2020 vintage, VIP+ only.
