(at 13% potential alcohol, this cuvee was the highest in octane in 2016 and was not chaptalized; these vines were affected by frost–the yield was 24 hectoliters per hectare–but not to the same extent as the estate’s Echezeaux and Musigny): Dark red with ruby tones. Captivating, ripe, soil-driven nose shows savory mineral and spice nuances. Silky on entry, then fine-grained and elegant in the middle palate, with nothing hard or rustic about it. Cherry and redcurrant fruit flavors are complicated by saline mineral notes and a suGGestion of anise. Finishes with full, mounting, harmonious tannins and lovely energy and length. Very classic Clos Vougeot. 91-94 points Stephen Tanzer (Vinous Media)

Notes
Clay dominates this terroir, which produces powerful and structured wines which are a little rustic in their early youth. Jacques Prieur’s roughly 1Ha is “at the top of the bottom of the Clos”.
