Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Stephen Tanzer
Healthy bright red. Cherry, raspberry and a touch of minerality on the nose. Juicy, dry and leanish, with raspberry and cranberry flavors firmed by minerality. The Ligniers did a pass through this vineyard prior to the harvest to eliminate grapes affected by the Drosophila suzukii, said Laurent Lignier.
About the Producer
For vinifications and ageing, our methods are little interventionist.The fruit’s quality is essential to craft 24 great wines. We make fresh, fine and elegant wines which are also full bodied with a long lasting and mouth-watering finish. Each of our terroirs (Clos de la Roche, Morey, Gevrey-Chambertin, …) expresses itself through our wines. Our ageing in barrels (20 to 30% new oak) is rather long (20 or 22 months), on lees and without racking after malolactic fermentation. The wines are bottled using gravity, without fining in order to keep the wine’s freshness and its ageing potential.
