List of products by brand DOMAINE JACQUES PRIEUR

Established in Meursault at the heart of the Côte-d'Or, Domaine Jacques Prieur farms 21 hectares of limestone and clay-limestone soils under certified organic management. Founded in 1868 by Claude Duvergey, the estate takes its name from Jacques Prieur, co-founder of the Chevaliers du Tastevin in 1956 — a detail that speaks to its place within Burgundian history. Since 1988, the Labruyère family has held a majority stake, securing the estate's independence and long-term direction. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this estate for the rigour of its organic viticulture, the precision of its élevage, and the consistency of its range across both red and white Meursault. A Burgundian benchmark we are genuinely proud to list.

Domaine Jacques Prieur has represented, since 1868, a particular vision of Burgundy: a demanding family estate rooted in Meursault, farmed today under certified organic principles across 21 hectares of Côte-d'Or limestone and clay-limestone soils.

A Burgundian story spanning more than 150 years

It was Claude Duvergey who laid the foundations of what would become one of the reference estates of the Meursault appellation. The name Jacques Prieur came later — from the man who shaped the estate's identity through the mid-twentieth century and who, in 1956, co-founded the Chevaliers du Tastevin, the celebrated confraternity devoted to the promotion of Burgundian wine. That act of cultural stewardship tells you something about the spirit of the estate: deeply embedded in the traditions and ambitions of the Côte-d'Or, never content merely to produce wine, but to champion an entire region.

The Labruyère family and a new chapter

In 1988, a pivotal moment arrived. Faced with the prospect of a sale to outside interests, the famille Labruyère entered the capital as majority shareholders, preserving the estate's Burgundian character and ensuring continuity of vision. The Prieur heirs retain a stake, and the estate continues to bear the name that has defined it for generations. This balance of family stewardship — old and new — has proved a quietly effective model, allowing the estate to invest in both its vineyards and its cellars without compromising the integrity that earned its reputation in the first place.

Terroir, soils, and organic farming

The estate's 21 hectares sit on the characteristic soils of the Côte-d'Or: limestone and clay-limestone, the geological foundation that gives Meursault its distinctive tension and depth. The estate has committed fully to certified organic agriculture, a decision that reflects both a respect for these soils and a long-term view of quality. Working without synthetic herbicides or pesticides demands greater attention in the vineyard, particularly in a region where the climate can be unforgiving — but the results, in terms of soil health and fruit expression, are plain to see in the wines. The two principal varieties — Chardonnay for the whites and Pinot Noir for the reds — are each given the conditions they need to express the specificity of their plots within the appellation.

The wines of Domaine Jacques Prieur

The estate produces both red and white wines across the Meursault appellation and the broader Bourgogne region. The range reflects the diversity of the estate's holdings on Côte-d'Or soils:

  • White wines (Chardonnay) — the heart of the estate's identity, expressing the mineral precision and generous texture that define the finest Meursault
  • Red wines (Pinot Noir) — structured, terroir-driven expressions from certified organic vines on limestone-rich soils

Across both colours, the élevage is handled with care and precision, allowing each wine to develop complexity without losing the freshness that marks the best of Burgundy.

Why we have selected Domaine Jacques Prieur

At Halles Quercamps, we look for estates where viticulture, history, and winemaking ambition align. Domaine Jacques Prieur meets all three criteria. The commitment to organic farming across all 21 hectares is not a marketing position — it is a genuine agronomic choice, made at scale and maintained consistently. The estate's roots in Meursault since 1868 give it a depth of understanding of these soils that cannot be replicated. And the precision of the élevage, across both red and white, produces wines that reward patience in the cellar as much as pleasure at the table.

We recommend these wines to confirmed Burgundy enthusiasts building a serious cellar, and equally to those seeking a benchmark Meursault to accompany a fine piece of turbot, a roast chicken with cream, or a well-aged Comté. The reds, meanwhile, are a natural companion to roasted game or duck.
