2022 Harmand Geoffroy Gevrey Chambertin Clos Prieur

Perhaps confusingly, the upper part of the Clos Prieur vineyard is classified as premier cru (and sits just underneath grand cru Mazis-Chambertin on the slope), and the lower part is classified as village-level. Harmand-Geoffroy owns a half-hectare’s worth of vines here split among three parcels—two in the village-level sector and one in the premier-cru sector—and the wine it produces is subtle and layered, with notable mineral finesse and polite tannins complementing a core of appealingly restrained fruit. 40% new oak.
