Of extreme rarity, the mythical and cult-like wines of Prieure Roch really do show such singularity. Grand Cru Clos Vougeot, with vines planted as far back as 1929 and situated in what is a coveted sub-section “terroir royal,” is perhaps their best wine along with Clos de Beze. 2007 is showing superbly, combining the elegance of the vintage with the power of the site with captivatingly complex aromatics and a juicy, earthy and floral mineral inflicted core and a finish that keeps on going. This was simply magical after some air. Special wine. — a year ago

Well. This messes things up. A village wine that has the poise and guts of most everyone else’s 1er cru wines. The oak and malo will surely integrate with time. — 3 years ago

Vino bianco tannico, come piace a me, più grezzo ma okay! Dopo un po’ nel bicchiere diventa più pulito e mieloso. Vino bianco top !! — 5 years ago

Low expectations are everyone’s friendly and it is here too. I don’t recall how I came to own this wine, I expected something simple and flat. It is not. It has spine, it is much richer than I expected- more reminiscent, to me at least, of a Bordeaux like prieure lichine. I am quite surprised, in a good way. Have at it — 4 years ago

I have had more underwhelming Aglianicos than wines of any other supposedly noble grape (not counting many disappointing Malbecs in this calculation because in no way is Malbec noble . . . but I digress). So many are overextracted, tannic, scorchy messes. But this one is very good. The nose displays intense smoky, stony minerality (yes, evocative of volcanic soil). There’s also an animal note on top of the very dark cherry fruit. In the mouth the intense minerality leads again, with smoky, savory notes. But there is some fruit there, and the tannins, while still making themselves felt, are in check. Nice acids too. This is a really distinctive and nicely done take on this obviously tricky varietal. — 5 years ago

Experienced this producer last year and wasn’t a fan but everyone deserves a second chance….Mr Prieure is redeeming himself…..Sommelier was a big fan too, recommending this over some other big names…..tasting notes: very light and delicate, scents of pickled cucumber (yes, really) and rhubarb. Not our usual deep berry concentration, this one is much more sophisticated, and deserving of the occasion and venue! — 2 years ago
