Red dry
The "Champs Pimont" vineyard, nestled on the slopes of the Beaune hill, yields an exceptionally mineral and energetic Chardonnay. The 2020 vintage stands out for its concentration, masterfully balanced by the expert touch of Domaine Jacques Prieur.
Fresh and intense, the bouquet is dominated by ripe yellow stone fruits and peaches, interlaced with notes of roasted nuts, brioche, and a distinct salty minerality. On the palate, the wine is substantial with a creamy texture, yet remains remarkably vibrant thanks to its lively acidity. It features a touch of flint and a long, elegant finish.
This wine is best served at a temperature of 12–14°C with roasted duck with almond crust, chicken with venison sauce, or scallop risotto.
Jacques Prieur Winery was founded in 1898 in Meursault of the Côte de Beaune subregion of the Burgundy region. It is a winery of the highest reputation, with as many as 9 wines from the Burgundy grand cru vineyards. In addition, Domaine Jacques Prieur is the only winery in all of Burgundy that has its own vineyards in all five legendary appeals: Chambertin, Musigny, Clos de Vougeot, Corton Charlemagne and Montrachet. By the way, this winery is next to the Domaine de la Romanée Conti. The winery is currently run by Martin Prieur and Edward Labruyère. The farm winemaker is talented and recognized by Nadine Gublin, named Winemaker of the Year in 1997 by Revue du Vin de France. The old vineyards are responsibly maintained to ensure an impeccable harvest. Berries are harvested separately on each plot, so it is possible to produce characteristic wines. Jacques Prieur wines are seen as an example of modern Burgundy.
