Jacques Prieur

Fourteen Premiers Crus complete this wonderful collection spread over Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits. Nine grands crus, fourteen premiers crus, three crus monopoles, a veritable string of pearls. 

Today at the helm of this jewel of the Bourgogne, the Labruyère Family, also owners of Château Rouget in Pomerol and Domaine Labruyère in Moulin-à-Vent, work daily to make the most of this prestigious heritage. She is supported by Martin Prieur, grandson of Jacques Prieur, who has worked and lived with his family on the property since 1990. Now in charge, along with Edouard Labruyère, of marketing the wines of Domaine, Martin Prieur represents the link between past and present, for no one knows the history of Domaine and its vines as well as he does. Under the guidance of Daniel Godefroy, an experienced vineyard manager who knows each plot inside out, Domaine has been following a "viticulture raisonnée" approach for many years. Work in the winery and cellar is supervised by the excellent oenologist Nadine Gublin. An adept at reasoned and precise intervention in the winemaking process, she was notably awarded the title of Winemaker of the Year 1998 by the Revue du Vin de France.

Consisting entirely of Grands Crus and Premiers Crus (with the exception of Clos de Mazeray at Meursault, Monopole and emblematic Village Appellation), Domaine Jacques Prieur produces white and red wines that are full-bodied, powerful and flavorful, standard-bearers of the great modern Bourgognes.
