Frédéric Esmonin Description
With its soft, supple texture and palate full of delicate red fruit & seductive, earthy notes, ‘Clos Prieur’ starts out as exceptionally elegant for a Gevrey...it’s not until the long finish, however, that the wine picks up firm tannins and more weight, revealing a more serious & brooding side.
Supple in texture, this red boasts cherry, black currant, graphite, and earth notes. Starts out very elegant for the appellation, picking up firm tannins and more weight on the long finish.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
A rich yet juicy and fluid red, boasting cherry, currant, tomato leaf and sweet spice flavors. Firm and supple at once, with terrific balance and a long, chalky, spicy aftertaste. Best from 2027 through 2040. 90 cases imported.
