14-18∘C
Very beautiful dark ruby red color. Pronounced purple disc. Very complex, both on floral notes (rose petals), on notes of berry fruits (raspberry, blackcurrant, blackberry) and on notes of sweet spices (vanilla). On a dense texture, embellished with a tasty and digestible fruitiness and fleshy, fresh and spicy tannins.
Since 1868, Domaine Jacques Prieur has created one of the rarest mosaics of terroirs in Burgundy. Today it is probably the only estate owning vineyards on the greatest appellations both of Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits: Chambertin, Musigny, Clos Vougeot, Echézeaux, Corton, Meursault or Montrachet. This amazing collection is completed by other prestigious appellations and 3 Clos Monopoles.
Grand Clos of 50 hectares created by the Monks of Cîteaux. The Château du Clos Vougeot housed their cellar, and is now used by the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin. Clay dominates this terroir, which produces powerful and structured wines that are a little rustic in their early youth.
The grapes are harvested by hand then sorted and totally destemmed. The fermentation lasted 23 days at controlled temperature in open wooden vats. We perform a punching down twice a day during the active phase of alcoholic fermentation. 100% malolactic fermentation is carried out. The aging is done 100% in oak barrels. Aging period: 21 months.
