Prieur Clos de Vougeot gc. 2020 0,75l

Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru from Domaine Jacques Prieur comes from the legendary walled vineyard in the heart of the Côte de Nuits. Its deep, clay-rich soils give powerful, firmly structured Pinot Noir with a distinctly savoury profile. The nose offers dark cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant, joined by violet, green pepper, liquorice and a touch of menthol. On the palate the wine is bold, juicy and spicy, with dense fruit, assertive but ripe tannins and impressive drive. As it opens in the glass, earthy and undergrowth notes add complexity. With time in bottle, it gains a silky, slightly rustic charm and a very long, mouthwatering finish.
