Tasting notes
A wine that oozes richness and warmth, tannins so smooth, almost creamy. The sensuality and earthiness of Nuits.
Nuits-Saint-Georges 1Er C Prieuré Roch Clos Des Argillieres 2022 emerges as a remarkable expression of Burgundy, showcasing the exceptional qualities of the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation. This wine is crafted from Pinot Noir, a grape varietal renowned for its finesse and complexity, cultivated in the esteemed terroir of Clos des Argillieres.
The vineyard's unique clay-limestone soil reflects the region's characteristic minerality, resulting in a wine that combines the richness of fruit with the elegance of structure. The 2022 vintage offers an inviting bouquet, featuring notes of ripe dark berries, subtle earthiness, and hints of floral undertones. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious balance of silkiness and fresh acidity, supported by refined tannins.
This release encapsulates both the tradition and innovation that Prieuré Roch is celebrated for, affirming its stature in the world of fine wines. With its potential for ageing, the 2022 vintage promises to evolve beautifully, allowing wine enthusiasts to appreciate its depth and craftsmanship for years to come.
About the Winery
Domaine Prieuré Roch is something of a cult, minimal-intervention Burgundy producer with vineyard holdings throughout the Côte d'Or but mostly concentrated in Nuit-Sain-Georges. Wines are made from a number of designated appellations with Pinot Noir red wines in preponderance. However, the estate also has Chardonnay vineyards in the Côte de Beaune.
