Prieure-Roch Vosnee Romanee Premier Cru Clos Goillottes 2022 AOC 0.75l is a bottle that lucidly recounts a page of terroir and focused work, ready to dialogue with those seeking depth, texture, and elegant vigour in the glass. From the surface of Clos Goillottes, a prominent estate in the heart of Vosne-Romanée, comes a wine that expresses the grace of a complex terroir where clay, limestone, and a vibrancy of minerals play a decisive role in the final character, offering the nose and palate a symphonic texture of ripe red fruit, candied citrus peel, subtle spices, and a light hint of toasted notes that accompany a measured yet present organoleptic structure. Prieure-Roch is a historic winery in the Côte de Nuits that has built a reputation for precision and respect for the terroir over time. This vision stems from a balance between hand-me-down tradition and a focus on evolving winemaking methods, with particular attention to the vineyards, climate, and yields, and a production philosophy that emphasizes slow maturation and minimal intervention, allowing the wine to express itself with intensity but without forcing. In this vein, Prieure-Roch's philosophy unfolds through a choice of hand-picked grapes, controlled fermentation, and oak aging, favoring older barrels or neutral containers to preserve the purity of fruit and minerality. This creates a velvety texture reflected in a lingering elegance, capable of pairing even with complex pairings such as red meats, rich mushrooms, and aged cheeses without losing coherence. Compared to other interpretations of the appellation, this Prieure-Roch Vosnee Romanee Premier Cru Clos Goillottes 2022 stands out for its defined flavor bubbles that remain vivid on the finish, its restrained density, and the careful management of acidity that adds freshness without sacrificing roundness. This bottle is a benchmark within the winery's portfolio, where each wine has a clear role but is also a travel companion for those who wish to explore the depth of the terroir without sacrificing cosmopolitan elegance. Ultimately, this expression fits perfectly into the STELT positioning, offering territorial authenticity, artisanal rigor, and a measured longevity that invites us to rediscover the subtraction of time between the vines and the glass, a promise of drinkability and reflection that endures over time.
