Beaune 1er Cru Champs-Pimont Jacques Prieur (Domaine) (no reserve) 2009
The wine
The white Champs-Pimont Premier Cru is a pretty golden yellow colour. From the start, the nose evokes aromas of stone with gunflint and flint, accompanied by slight élevage notes. There are pronounced saline notes on the palate, as well as dried fruit and great tension at the finish. This Beaune will pair particularly well with fish dishes or poultry in sauce.
About the Producer Jacques Prieur
The Domaine Jacques Prieur is one of the most prestigious domains in Burgundy. It is the only domain with vines in the five mythic appellations of Chambertin, Musigny, Clos de Vougeot, Corton Charlemagne and Montrachet. Since 2007, 70% of the domain is owned by the Labruyère family (Clos du Moulin at Moulin-à-vent and Château Rouget at Pommerol), who bought Antonin Rodet's shares. Jean-Pierre Labruyère is the manager. The other 30% is still owned by the Prieur heirs. Half of the distribution is taken care of by Antonin Rodet and the other half by the domain. The wines are vinified by Nadine Gublin since 1990, renowned oenologist for her work, the precision and the quality of her wines. It is now one of the most prestigious from Burgundy. It is the only domain with vines in the five biggest iconic appellations of Chambertin, Musigny, Clos de Vougeot, Corton Charlemagne and Montrachet.
