Prieuré-Roch Goillotte Vin De France 2023

At Domaine Prierue Roch what matters most is not the appellation printed on
the label , but the wine itself – the purity, the energy, and the story inside every bottle.

Domaine Prieuré Roch was established by the late Henri Fedrich Roch who was up until his passing was also the Co- Director of Domaine de La Romanée Conti. He established Domaine Prieure Roch in 1988 when he acquired vineyards including the Clos Goillotte monopole in Vosne Romanee from Domaine Romanee Conti & the imposing 5.2 hectare Clos des Corvee monopole in Nuits St Georges where the Domaine’s impressive new home is situated along the famous RN 74 route des Grand Cru’s.

The 2023 vintage for Domaine Prieure Roch is regarded by Yannick Champ & cellar master Antonio Quari as a vintage that produced extremely satisfying wines with lower alcohols levels than 2022 and 2020 and given the warm summer the balance of alcohol and acidity are also very good. These 2023 wines are fruit forward with beautiful aromatics enhanced by whole cluster fermentation that will be pleasing to many.

A rare & distinguished monopole that is fifty metres from La Tâche, the vineyard was purchased from Domaine de la Romanée Conti in 1988 & Prieure Roch views this rare plot of Grand Cru quality. The vineyard has a history dating to 1763 when a winery & large mansion was built next to the garden vineyard for the Prince of Conti. In 2003 due to the bountiful harvest the production exceeded AOC regulations so the Domaine has chosen to declassify this rare monopole.
