Domaine Prieure Roch Vieilles Vignes Nuits-St-Georges Premier Cru 2015

The 2015 Domaine Prieure Roch Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Vieilles Vignes is a testament to the storied terroir of Cote de Nuits. This wine, crafted from the oldest vines of Clos des Corvées, showcases a savory and classic profile with an enormous body and profound depth. With a moderate decanting time of one hour, it unfolds layers of complexity, making it an excellent companion to rich dishes such as duck breast with a red wine reduction or a hearty beef bourguignon. Its well-structured tannins and vibrant acidity promise a wine that will continue to evolve gracefully in the cellar.

Domaine Prieuré Roch extends over 14 hectares, along the Côte de Nuits, over a dozen climats. Founded in 1988 by Henri Roch little information can be found on Prieure Roch wines which are legendary in and around Burgundy.

The Domaine applies organic methods and favours very low yields. They are biodynamically managed vineyards, the wines are simply about purity and are produced with minimal intervention. His wines are therefore very fine and represent as closely as possible their respective climats.

These wines are low yields and are extremely limited, very few if any professional reviews are written about these wines.
