2016 Jacques Prieur Beaune 1er Cru Grèves Rouge
Domaine Jacques Prieur
Beautiful plot overlooking the suburbs of Beaune. Clay-limestone soil with predominance of small pebbles and sand. The silica contained in the latter promotes heat and light, aiding ripening.

(just 12% potential alcohol at harvest, from badly frosted east-facing vines that produced just 12 hectoliters per hectare; 100% destemmed, like the Beaune Clos de la Féguine): Bright red-ruby. Pure but subdued aromas of black cherry and licorice. Dense and rich, conveying a lovely impression of sucrosité along with hints of anise and saline minerality. Surprisingly relaxed for such a low-yield wine. Very concentrated, serious Beaune premier cru with slowly building salty persistence.
