Tasting Notes
The 2015 Domaine Prieure Roch Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Vieilles Vignes is a testament to the storied terroir of Cote de Nuits. This wine, crafted from the oldest vines of Clos des Corvées, showcases a savory and classic profile with an enormous body and profound depth.

Domaine Prieuré Roch extends over 14 hectares, along the Côte de Nuits, over a dozen climats. Founded in 1988 by Henri Roch little information can be found on Prieure Roch wines which are legendary in and around Burgundy.
