Product: 2024 Frederic Esmonin, Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos Prieur
Made in the traditional style of Gevrey that emphasises fineness of fruit and attractive mineral notes. The Clos Prieur 2024 offers crushed strawberry, an almost creamy depth of vanilla and light spice along with clean mineral tones. An attractive, fruit forward Gevrey, intended for drinking in the first few years from bottling.
These wonderful vineyards will still be managed by the apparently immortal Andre, Frederic’s father, who was bottling quality reds here at les Estournelles long before the fashion for Domaine bottled burgundy took off. The vines are managed to achieve a balance between expression and concentration, a good deal of finesse and some fat too. Andre is, in his modest way, one of most knowledgeable of Nuits vignerons. He remembers details of vintages back to the 1950s and planted vines with his father in the 1940s. He is not a big fan of intervention, especially green harvesting, as he believes that ‘more often than not’, it is an attempt to correct mistakes that have been made in the pruning and longer term management of vineyards’. Exclusive to Waud Handford.
