Domaine du Prieure Hautes Cotes de Beaune

"Great value red Burgundy"

From the village of Savigny in the Côte de Beaune, Jean Michel Maurice takes pride in preserving the subtle influence of the terroir and pure essence of Pinot from the surrounding vignoble. These grapes are from the higher slopes above Savigny and hand picked at harvest. Vinification is in open vats, with maceration and fermentation lasting a week before the wine is aged in barrels for 9 months. This wine extols the virtues of this tricky grape variety, with a purity of fruit and a captivating perfume of summer berries whilst finishing to a soft silkiness. Perfect with cold meats or when accompanied to roasted lamb, chicken or duck.
