Domaine Marc Roy Gevrey Chambertin 'Clos Prieur' 2024
Vintage Character
Domaine Marc Roy Gevrey Chambertin 'Clos Prieur' 2024 is a village Pinot Noir shaped by a distinctly cool and wet Burgundy season. Rain and difficult flowering curtailed the crop, while mildew made attentive vineyard work essential. At Domaine Marc Roy the fruit remained healthy, and harvest began on 13 September. A gentle cellar approach preserved the fresh, vivid character of this smaller harvest. The wine's fine-grained structure and clear red-fruit length convey that restrained vintage character, offering aromatic detail and persistence instead of the broad, overt richness associated with hotter growing seasons.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The aromatic profile combines roasted cherry and raspberry with wild strawberry, dried cranberry and a hint of dried herbs. A toasted note adds another layer without replacing the fruit. Red-fruit flavours remain prominent on the palate, where the texture is precise and finely grained, leading into a long, pure finish. Roast quail, pork with a light mushroom sauce, or a wild-mushroom tart would make appealing matches. Keep strongly sweet sauces to a minimum so the wine's savoury and herbal details remain distinct, and allow it a little time in the glass to reveal its aromatic range.
Winery Background
Alexandrine Roy took over the family domaine in 2003 and continues its fourth generation of winegrowing in Gevrey-Chambertin. The Clos Prieur parcel sits below Mazis-Chambertin, with mature vines rooted in iron-rich clay over limestone. This domaine bottling retains its village classification, with Clos Prieur giving it a distinct parcel identity. The grapes are destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts, with gentle extraction and considered use of oak. Careful vineyard selection and a light hand in the cellar allow the parcel's fruit and texture to remain recognisable.
