| | | Since 1868, Domaine Jacques Prieur has created one of the rarest mosaics of terroirs in Burgundy. Founded in 1956, today the domaine is owned by the charming, understated Edouard Labruyère. Pristine vineyards are impeccably maintained to produce fruit of exquisite quality. The winery and domaine have been undergoing renovation since the Labruyere family purchased the domaine and today the winery has facilities equal to the best in the world. We are very happy to be able to offer these two great reds at a special holiday price!

2011 Jacques Prieur Corton Bressandes Grand Cru Regular $210 bottle
SALE PRICE $165 bottle
93 Points Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate "Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Among several red Cortons tasted blind, Prieur’s Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru ‘11 has one of the most sophisticated and cerebral aromatics. It is well defined with blackberry, raspberry, mineral, black tea and marine influences that hold your attention. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe and supple tannins, nicely judged acidity and a harmonious, silky, almost Vosne-like finish that lingers in the mouth. This constitutes one of the finest offerings from Jacques Prieur this year.” — Neal Martin Drink Date: 2015-2030
92-94 Points Burghound Sweet Spot "A very fresh and airy nose features a broad-ranging set of aromas that include menthol, anise, clove, stone, earth, cassis and plum. There is a sophisticated mouth feel to the big-bodied flavors that benefit from an abundance of palate coating dry extract before culminating in a delicious yet serious finish that delivers absolutely outstanding length. This is, in a word, terrific."

| 2008 Jacques Prieur Grand Cru Clos Vougeot Regular $175 bottle
SALE PRICE $150 bottle
93 Points Burghound "This is also admirably fresh and ripe with reserved aromas of damp earth, game and underbrush as well as plum and red currant. The supple, mouth coating and moderately rustic big-bodied flavors offer excellent depth of material and fine length on the firm, austere and linear finish. This too will require plenty of cellar time but should well reward your patience."
