Vosne-Romanée Les Hautes Maizieres - Domaine Prieuré Roch 2015

The domain

Owned by Henry-Frédéric Roc, co-manager of Romanée Conti, the Prieuré Roch estate is one of the jewels of Nuits Saint Georges. He cultivates a small dozen hectares by applying the principles of organic farming. The yields are much lower than those usually practiced in this appellation, guaranteeing the exceptional quality of Prieuré Roch wines. The estate's grapes Roch Priory are vinified in whole bunches, that is to say not destemmed. The domain Roch Priory operates small plots such as Hautes Maizières, Clos Goillote, and Les Suchots in Vose-Romanée but also great vintages such as Clos Vougeot and Chambertin Clos de Bèze. Further south, it benefits from a Nuits Saint Georges premier cru in monopoly Le Clos des Corvées and some crafted in Clos des Argilières. He also acquired 2 hectares in Ladoix where he produces a white Burgundy wine and a Burgundy wine red.
