Domaine Jacques Prieur - Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 2012
87-89/100
Robert Parker
"This Gevrey-Chambertin 1er cru offers a lively floral bouquet of dried violet petals infused with dark berries and just a hint of black tea. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with crisp tannins and a lovely liveliness, showing a slight softening on the finish." (Wine Advocate 2013 - Robert Parker)

Rated estate (2018 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
Édouard Labruyère’s enthusiasm and determination to elevate this estate to the ranks of the grands crus are remarkable. His efforts are evident in the vineyard—which has been farmed organically since 1997—in the cellar, where foudres and demi-muids have been in use since 2012, and, most importantly, in the glass. With its exceptional range of grands crus across 22 hectares of vineyards—including 17 hectares in the Côte de Beaune and an exclusive selection of grands crus in the Côte de Nuits—this estate possesses all the qualities needed to join the elite ranks of Burgundy’s estates.
