The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A prestigious signature crowned with top critic scores, Domaine Jacques Prieur stands at the very pinnacle of French winemaking.
In fact, it’s the only estate to own a third of all Côte d’Or Grands Crus.

Its success and reputation are closely tied to Nadine Gublin, head winemaker since 1990, who’s shaped a style that’s sharp, uncompromising, and brilliantly effective.

Under the Labruyère family’s guidance, this historic name in the heart of the Côte de Beaune may well be enjoying its finest chapter yet. With a stunning range of terroirs and consistently exceptional wines, this estate isn’t just a safe bet — it’s an essential one.
Farmed organically since 1997, its 30 hectares of vineyards produce grapes of outstanding quality, all vinified with masterful precision. Every detail is dialed in: aging is perfectly judged, execution flawless — and through it all, Nadine Gublin’s personal touch shines through.
Wine Delicately styled, the 2016 Red Beaune Premier Cru Clos de la Féguine delivers notes of peony, rose, and tangy raspberry — all finesse and elegance. From a 1.59-hectare parcel facing Pommard, with shallow, limestone-rich soils and full southern exposure, the Pinot Noir shines with purity and subtlety.
The texture is airy and refined, yet never lacking in ripeness or poise.
A seriously charming wine, effortlessly enjoyable.Scored 93/100 by our Selection Committee.
