Domaine Jacques Prieur Beaune Clos de la Feguine Premier Cru Rouge 2022
This red wine is a prestigious expression from the Beaune Premier Cru appellation in Burgundy. Clos de la Féguine is a 1.59-hectare monopole (exclusively owned vineyard) of Domaine Jacques Prieur. The vineyard is characterized by its steep, south-facing slopes and thin, fractured limestone soils, the site of a former quarry, which provide perfect drainage and impart a distinct mineral tension to the wine.
Wine Description
The Domaine Jacques Prieur Beaune Clos de la Féguine Premier Cru Rouge is a concentrated and aromatically complex Pinot Noir.
Appearance: Intense dark ruby red with deep purple reflections.
Nose: Charming and expressive, it reveals a bouquet of ripe black fruits like black cherry, blackberry, and blueberry, accented by floral notes of violet and rose petals. Subtle hints of iron, sweet spices, and vanilla emerge with aeration.
Palate: The palate is tasty and juicy, featuring a "cocktail" of fresh black fruit and licorice. It is characterized by a velvety texture and a solid core of ripe, dense tannins that are well-integrated. The wine maintains excellent freshness due to its vibrant acidity, leading to a long, savory finish.
Food Pairing
This fleshy and generous Beaune is a natural partner for musky, firm meats. It pairs exceptionally well with feathered game such as roast duck, pheasant, or goose. It also complements roasted red meats, lamb with herbs, and earthy dishes like mushroom risotto. For cheese, traditional Burgundian options like Epoisses, Soumaintrain, or an aged Comté are ideal matches.
