Estate History

Established in 1868, **Domaine Jacques Prieur** holds a prestigious place among Burgundy’s great domaines, with vineyards across the region’s most renowned Grands Crus. The **Musigny Grand Cru** is the jewel of the Côte de Nuits, celebrated for its combination of power and grace — a wine of rare complexity and elegance, produced from one of Burgundy’s most legendary terroirs.

Terroir

On the palate, the wine is silky and powerful, with fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, elegant, floral-driven finish with a persistent mineral undertone.

An exceptional Musigny Grand Cru — combining depth, refinement, and aromatic brilliance with extraordinary aging potential.

Pairing

Perfect with roasted pigeon, duck breast, venison, or aged cheeses like Époisses and Comté. Also ideal as a meditation wine for special occasions.
