WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Jacques Prieur Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru is a highly sought-after wine produced by the renowned winemaker Jacques Prieur. This wine comes from the Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru appellation, which is known for its exceptional vineyard features, including a south-facing slope that provides optimal sun exposure and a soil rich in limestone and clay. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels for a period of time. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant red, with notes of dark fruit, spice, and earthy undertones. This wine is a perfect example of the exceptional quality that can be achieved through meticulous winemaking and the unique terroir of the Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru appellation.
