Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Prieur was showing a touch of reduction on the nose: earthy in style, touches of cold stone infiltrating the brambly red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple red cherry and strawberry fruit, a fine line of acidity. It is not a complex premier cru though the fleshy, lithe finish slips down the throat with ease. Pretty, if lacking a little substance. Tasted September 2016.

Medium red. Slightly high-toned aromas of plum, spicy oak, thyme and rosemary, plus a whiff of menthol. Offers good concenration and texture, but today the wine's red and purple fruit flavors are a bit overshadowed by savory garrigue -like notes. Finishes with dusty, granular tannins. David Rossignol believes this wine is in the process of closing down in the bottle; it certainly comes across as austere today.
