Domaine Jacques Prieur Beaune Greves 1er Cru Rouge 2015 (1x75cl)

Domaine Jacques Prieur Beaune Greves 1er Cru Rouge 2015 is Pinot Noir from Burgundy. Both Premier Cru and the Greves site name are printed on the label, so that is what is in the bottle: a Beaune Premier Cru red.

Beaune reds are usually the softer, rounder side of the Cote de Beaune, and with ten years of bottle age this is aimed at a proper dinner rather than a casual glass. Stand it up for a day and pour carefully in case of sediment. Free Hong Kong delivery over HK$800, flat HK$80 below that, standard delivery 2-5 business days.

Tasting notes

Burgundy Pinot Noir with this much age usually shifts from fresh red fruit toward dried cherry, forest floor and spice, with tannins that have typically softened. Good with duck, beef or anything with mushrooms.
