Vintage Character René Leclerc’s Gevrey-Chambertin “Clos Prieur” 2023 is a Village-level Pinot Noir that captures the appellation’s classic interplay of perfume and structure. The 2023 vintage in Burgundy was generally warm, helping wines achieve generous fruit while still holding onto the freshness that gives Pinot Noir its definition. Expect lifted aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry with a floral violet accent, followed by gentle baking spice, subtle toast and a mineral edge.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing The palate is medium-bodied and dry, with medium tannins and medium-high acidity creating a refined, silky feel and a savoury, soil-tinged finish. It shines alongside roast duck, herb-roasted chicken, mushroom risotto, or a simple charcuterie board.
Winery Background Domaine René Leclerc is a family-run estate based in Gevrey-Chambertin, working primarily with Pinot Noir from village and premier cru parcels. Its style is geared toward clear terroir expression, favouring careful vineyard work and measured extraction, with oak used in a supportive role rather than to dominate the fruit. “Clos Prieur” is a Gevrey-Chambertin lieu-dit (a named vineyard site), and the domaine’s restrained élevage is intended to let the site’s natural ароматics, savoury nuance, and firm-but-polished structure come through with clarity.
