Montrachet 2011 from Domaine Jacques Prieur is a Grand Cru white Burgundy from the Côte de Beaune. Domaine Jacques Prieur holds 0.5 hectares in this famed plot, producing wines known for their balance and structural longevity through a traditional, classical winemaking approach. This wine displays a focused, powerful profile, offering concentrated aromas of lemon curd, stone fruit, white truffle and wet stone minerality. The palate is intense and richly textured, showcasing immense depth and a linear, powerful acidity that ensures long cellar life.

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Montrachet Grand Cru 2011 from Jacques Prieur has a more powerful bouquet than the Marquis de Laguiche, although it is not quite as refined. Touches of slate start to evolve with aeration -- dried yellow flowers and hints of wild honey with time in the glass. The palate is very well balanced with well-judged acidity, a little riper and more powerful than Marc Colin’s Montrachet, but a little blunter and slightly more oxidative in style. Grilled walnut and smoke adorn the vivacious finish that is long, but just missing that killer penetration. - Neal Martin

Bright pale yellow. Captivating aromas of lemon zest, wild herbs and menthol. Dense, saline and stuffed with fruit, with a pronounced saline quality and seriously strong acidity giving the wine terrific force for a 2011. Very young and slow to reveal itself. Gublin noted that this wine has been locked up tight from very early on. She planned to rack it in the days following my visit.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2013
