It would be an understatement to claim that Domaine Jacques Prieur's vineyard holdings are great. The domaine is the only property in Burgundy to own land in 5 of the regions most famous Grand Cru vineyards: Le Montrachet, Le Corton, Les Echèzeaux, Le Musigny and Le Chambertin. The domaine holds vineyards in 17 other prestigious appellations for a total of 51 acres under vine.
Founded in 1956, today the domaine is managed by the charming, understated pair, Martin Prieur and Edward Labruyère. Pristine vineyards are impeccably maintained to produce fruit of exquisite quality. The winery and domaine have been undergoing renovation since the Labruyere family joined the ownership structure of the domaine and today the winery has facilities equal to the best in the world.
Each parcel is vinified separately to reveal its essential character. The winemaker is the remarkable, highly respected Nadine Gublin, named “Winemaker of the Year” in 1997 by the Revue du Vin de France.
