Wine:

The 2017 Red Beaune Champs-Pimont 1er Cru is an aromatic explosion, a bouquet of fresh flowers and small red fruits. Behind this purity of fruit lies a superb depth and density. The vines are located on the east side of Pommard, on a more clayey terroir which gives the wine this spherical, full and ample style, while remaining very digestible and elegant. A wine of immediate pleasure. A beautiful ageing of at least 5 years is expected for it to blossom. Rated 16/20 by our Selection Committee and 17.5/20 by Bettane+Desseauve.

A prestigious signature crowned with top ratings from critics, Domaine Jacques Prieur shines at the pinnacle of French viticulture. It is the only estate to own a third of the Grands Crus of the Côte d’Or.

Its success and reputation are also closely tied to Nadine Gublin, the head winemaker since 1990, who has crafted a style that is both strikingly precise and uncompromising.

Under the leadership of the Labruyère family, this historic estate in the heart of the Côte de Beaune is likely experiencing its finest era. Renowned for its diverse terroirs and the quality of its wines, the estate is not just a reliable choice—it is an essential one. Since 1997, the 30 hectares of vineyards have been farmed organically (currently undergoing certification), producing exceptional grapes that are masterfully vinified. Every detail is meticulously executed, from perfectly measured aging to the personal touch of Nadine Gublin, ensuring nothing is left to chance.
