Prieure Roch is renowned for its natural winemaking approach, often employing whole-cluster fermentation and minimal intervention, resulting in wines that are expressive of their terroir. While specific tasting notes for the 2022 Varoilles Monopole are still emerging, the general outlook for 2022 Burgundy reds suggests a return to more generous fruit and structure after the lighter 2021s. 【 A highly anticipated vintage from a natural winemaking pioneer 】. The Varoilles Monopole is a particularly special site, offering a unique expression of Gevrey-Chambertin's power and finesse. 🍴 This Gevrey-Chambertin, with its potential for rich fruit and earthy undertones, will pair wonderfully with robust dishes.
