WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Jacques Prieur Musigny Grand Cru is crafted from one of Burgundy’s most iconic sites, a southeast-facing limestone terrace in Côte de Nuits with a steep incline that encourages optimal sun exposure. Known for producing complex, age-worthy wines, this parcel in Musigny spans a small but precious fraction of the terroir. Domaine Jacques Prieur meticulously hand-harvests the grapes, ensuring only the finest fruit, followed by a carefully controlled fermentation in wooden vats to retain purity and depth. The wine then matures exclusively in new French oak barrels, adding layers of elegance, depth, and structure.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Deeply aromatic, this Grand Cru opens with layers of red berries, roses, and violets, underpinned by earthy notes and a touch of forest floor.Its palate is pure and silky, with polished tannins and vibrant acidity, offering flavors of black cherry, red currant, and subtle herb and dried leaf accents. The finish is long, revealing the mineral complexity of the terroir.
