Domaine Jacques Prieur 2009 Musigny Pinot Noir (Musigny)
-
$510
A sumptuous wine, rich in bright red fruits, with a structure and depth of flavor to match. The wine is gorgeously ripe, opening its heart quickly. Acidity, bitter chocolate and dark cherries go with the tannic core to promise long aging.

Domaine Jacques Prieur 2009 Chambertin Pinot Noir (Chambertin)
-
$360
A powerful, classic Chambertin, intensely structured and tannic. The sweet black fruit is potentially enormous, still finding its place among the tannins. Spice, with a mineral streak, gives the wine added complexity. Very dense in texture, this will age 10 years and many more.

Domaine Jacques Prieur 2009 Echézeaux Pinot Noir (Echézeaux)
-
$370
A structured wine, with great density of fruit, richness of texture and at the same time acidity. Its black fruit and red berry flavors are pure and very linear while also giving the wine a full-bodied character.

A huge, rich wine that is full of very ripe tannins and opulent black fruits. A powerful statement of ripe Pinot Noir, which is dark and brooding but still very seductive.

This monopole (single owner vineyard) has produced a wine of great depth and concentration, packed with black fruits, berries and a smoky wood character. It’s an impressive wine, very rich and with sufficient layered acidity. Very ageworthy.

Domaine Jacques Prieur 2009 Beaune Grèves Pinot Noir (Beaune)
There is rich fruit behind the severe opening tannins, giving a sumptuous although firmly structured wine. The raspberry and crushed strawberry flavors are developing well, ready to balance with the tannins after another year.
