Jacques Prieur, Beaune Greves Rouge Vintage:2016 Grapes are harvested by hand(from a 1. 17 ha parcel that gave only 14 hl ha in 2016). A more deeply pitched and slightly more complex nose offers up notes of dark pinot fruit, freshly turned earth, soft spice and a whiff of underbrush. The rich, concentrated and sappy medium bodied flavors possess evident muscle that adds to the sense of power on the robust and moderately rustic finale. This will definitely need at least a few years of cellaring first. (90 92) 2026+
