Description

The 2019 Frédéric Magnien Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur is an expressive Pinot Noir from a gently sloping, clay-rich vineyard situated just below the celebrated Clos de Bèze. It offers aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry and dark berries, accompanied by violet, liquorice, earthy notes and subtle spice.

On the palate, it is fleshy, supple and well balanced, with generous fruit, fresh acidity and fine-grained tannins. More open and approachable than many Gevrey-Chambertins, it nevertheless shows good depth and persistence, finishing with lingering floral, mineral and savoury notes.

Ben’s Recommendation:

At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Burgundy lovers seeking the depth of Gevrey-Chambertin in a softer, more immediately expressive style. Ideal with roast duck, beef bourguignon, grilled lamb, game birds, mushroom dishes or Époisses cheese.

About the region

Burgundy · Gevrey-Chambertin

Burgundy, or Bourgogne, runs north to south through eastern France, from Chablis through the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune to the Mâconnais. Almost everything here is Pinot Noir or Chardonnay, grown on small parcels called climats that have been mapped for centuries and ranked from regional and village wines up to Premier Cru and Grand Cru. The result is wine of unusual precision: the same grape, a few hundred metres apart, tasting unmistakably different.
