Domaine Jacques Prieur

Champs Pimont is a 1.4 hectare holding, with a high proportion of white marl which, as in Corton Charlemagne, can give a marked sense of stony mineral bite. White stone-fruit with honeysuckle aromas. The palate is inviting and full bodied, with orange blossom and yellow flowers, finishing salty-mineral and precise. Vinified in a mixture of 30% foudres and 70% barrels, with an average of 15% new oak.

There is a high proportion of clay here, with more topsoil than other vineyards. Spicy and exotic, racy and bright on entry, revealing impressive density on the mid-palate. The tannins are powerful but totally fruit-coated. 15% wholebunch fermentation here, with ageing in 20% new oak.

This is made from just under a hectare of vines, adjacent to the domaine, over the road from Clos de la Barre, within the village of Meursault. Ripe and effusive, with bright white peach fruit and juicy acidity, this will hit the ground running. It is vinified in a mixture of foudre and barrel

A prestigious, quality estate, based in Meursault but with vineyards extending from the Côte de Nuits down to Puligny - wonderful sites overseen by Edouard Labruyère and his exceptional team This is a site with a high proportion of clay, with more topsoil than other vineyards. Spicy and exotic, rather flamboyant with great density. The tannins are powerful but beautifully extracted and the wine has good ageing potential, whilst tasting well young. 50% whole bunch fermentation here, with ageing in 20% new oak. Only 18 hectolitres per hectare were produced in 2016 due to frost - so something of a rarity.
