Domaine Marc Roy Clos Prieur Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 2022

This Clos Prieur is muscular with an outstanding depth of flavours.

Domaine Marc Roy is an impressive Domaine of only four hectares. Their wines are arguably the most accomplished of the village appellation. “Clos Prieur” is a climat* located right under the Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru climat. Its upper part is classified as 1er Cru whilst its lower part is classified as a village appellation. The highest care is taken when producing this wine making it comparable to good 1er Crus from Gevrey-Chambertin.

The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur 1er Cru has a fresh, well-defined bouquet with plenty of energy and open, expressive raspberry and redcurrant aromas. The palate is balanced with a slightly savoury opening and hints of black pepper. Whilst not powerful, the finish conveys elegance. 90-92 points - Neal Martin, Vinous.

You can cellar it for up to 15 years or enjoy it in its youth by decanting it for 45 minutes before serving. 100% Pinot Noir.
