Domaine Prieuré Roch
Uncompromising Expression
To be an estate in the famed Burgundy wine region is one thing. To be Domaine Prieuré Roch—well, that’s another. Since 1988, their approach has been uncompromising: biodynamic farming, whole-cluster vinification, native yeasts, no fining, no filtration. Just unadulterated expression of terroir — vivid, visceral and profoundly alive.
Burgundy royalty
Henry-Frédéric Roch grew up inside Burgundy royalty—the Leroy clan, co-director of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, no less, where he'd later share the reins. But in 1988 he wanted something of his own, named on a whim after a case of Bordeaux that caught his eye.
Roch passed in 2018; but now under the direction of longtime winemaker Yannick Champ, the vision remains sharp: make wines of unmistakable identity, with fidelity to both land and legacy. That’s exactly what brought us this latest vintage.
In the heart of Burgundy’s Most Prized Climats
A harvest marked by balance, clarity and sheer vitality. It’s being hailed—quietly but confidently—as their most complete expression. The fruit is pristine, the structure refined, the energy electric.
The domaine stretches across 20 hectares, with holdings in some of Burgundy’s most prized climats—including three Clos Monopole vineyards. That level of vineyard sovereignty is practically unheard of in this region. It’s not just rare—it’s revered.

Each parcel is farmed with precision and restraint, yielding only the most articulate fruit. In the cellar, a philosophy of minimal intervention prevails, allowing site and season to take centre stage. These wines don’t follow a formula—they channel a frequency. And they’re impossible to replicate.
As always, quantities are minuscule, and they won’t stick around.
