Domaine Prieure Roch Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Corvées Vieilles Vignes 2021
In the 2021 harvest, Domaine Prieuré Roch combined the two distinguished sections of the Clos des Corvees monopole, selecting the finest and oldest parcels, including the prized millerand berries. This exclusive blend, reminiscent of the 2016 vintage, showcases the Domaine's resilience in the face of adversity, honouring Henri Roch's vision of the Clos de Corvees as the flagship of the Prieuré Roch fleet.
Established in 1988, Domaine Prieuré Roch has become synonymous with producing pure, transparent wines of exceptional quality, rooted in a commitment to biodynamic farming and traditional winemaking practices. With prized vineyard holdings in Burgundy's most renowned villages, including monopoles like Clos des Varoilles 1er Cru and Clos de Corvées 1er Cru, the Domaine upholds Henri Roch's legacy of vineyard reverence. Embracing 100% whole cluster fermentation and native yeast, their wines express the essence of their terroir. Despite the challenges of the 2021 vintage, marked by low yields and spring frosts, Domaine Prieuré Roch persevered, producing wines characterized by lower alcohols, vibrant acidity, and classical Burgundian freshness, heralding a return to tradition and finesse.
