93 points, “This wine is an impressive step up in concentration and depth of flavour in the Marc Roy portfolio, with ripe curranty fruit aromas with accents of smoke, spice, and earth notes. The texture features a firm tannic grip and fresh acidity. The body is somewhat light, but there is enough density to carry the wine to a winning finish. The parcel is located in the lower part of the Clos Prieur that is classed in village appellation as opposed to the upper part, which is premier cru.” - Decanter
Gevrey-Chambertin “Clos Prieur” is produced from a magnificent parcel of 60-year-old vines which sit on iron-rich clay over limestone, in the Mazis-Chambertin. The Clos Prieur is an expressive, structured Pinot Noir with a powerful fruit concentration and depth of flavour.
Aromas abound the senses with red currants, raspberry, blackberry and blackcurrants all intermingling with hints of flora and subtle earthy and spicy notes. Silky tannins and a gentle freshness provide structure and balance in this precise and elegant wine. An exquisite match with beef stew, slow cooked duck ragu, rich creamy dishes and strong cheeses, this full-bodied Pinot should find its way onto everyone's dinner table.
Alexandrine Roy is the fourth generation of growers in Gevrey-Chambertin and Marsannay and took over from her father Marc in 2003. She farms the 4-hectare Domaine with meticulous attention and care, working through minimal intervention and extraction to allow the old vine vineyards (some of which are over 100 years old) to express themselves with immense depth of flavour and clarity. Domaine Marc Roy wines are sought after by collectors and connoisseurs around the world, earning acclaim for their exceptional quality and timeless appeal. With each vintage, Alexandrine continues to push the boundaries of Burgundian winemaking, cementing her reputation as one of the region’s most talented and visionary winemakers.
