Tasting Notes
Since 1868, Domaine Jacques Prieur has created one of the rarest mosaics of terroirs in Burgundy. This splendid Premier Cru is 100% Pinot Noir produced from a 2.06 hectare plot, 100% aged in new oak barrels for 17 months. The 2019 is intense and dark ruby red in the glass. Open and rich on the nose, with notes of black fruits and black cherry liqueur, leading to dark chocolate, liquorice spices and tobacco. On the palate, tasty and juicy, with spicy, toasted, peppery notes, that open out on to ripe black fruits. A warm finish, with powerful, ripe and lively tannins.

Scores
93 / 100"Here the nose is both spicier and fresher with its mix of red and dark currant, cassis and soft wood nuances. There is lovely delineation to the energetic middle weight flavors that exhibit more minerality on the balanced, linear and very firm finale. This should age gracefully and is a wine that will need at least 6 to 8 years first. Drink 2031+."
