🏰【A sophisticated Grand Cru from an exceptional vintage】, the 2015 Domaine Jacques Prieur Musigny Grand Cru hails from a year marked by abundant sunlight and low rainfall, leading to an early harvest of promising Pinot Noir grapes. This wine underwent 20 days of maceration and 21 months in new oak, resulting in a refined red Burgundy. Robert Parker rated it 95 points, noting a sophisticated bouquet of mulberry and blackberry with cold stone and subtle sous-bois. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe tannins, fine focus, and attractive salinity, needing a decade to fully mellow. Burghound, also awarding 95 points, described an ultra-spicy nose of black raspberry, sandalwood, and exotic tea, with a dense, muscular palate showing plenty of minerality and a firm, mocha-tinged finish. It's a big, bold, and robust expression of Musigny.
🍴 This elegant red Burgundy is a perfect match for roasted duck with cherry reduction, pan-seared foie gras, or a rich mushroom risotto. It also beautifully complements aged Comté or Époisses cheese.
🥂 Ideal for a milestone anniversary celebration, a high-stakes wine tasting, or a luxurious dinner party where only the finest will do. This wine is a testament to Burgundy's grandeur and a superb addition to any serious collector's cellar. For a 2015 Grand Cru, decanting for 1-2 hours is recommended to allow its complex aromas to unfold. Serve at 16-18°C (60-64°F).
BACKGROUND
Domaine Jacques Prieur is a relatively large Burgundy producer that makes both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from esteemed vineyard holdings across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, France. The history of the domaine began in the 1860s, with the marriage of Claude Duvergey and Marie Taboureau. They first established the wine and spirits merchant business, Duvergey-Taboureau House, before buying property in Meursault – now the site of the modern Domaine Jacques Priuer.
