Tasting Notes
From 50+ year old vines in the village of Chambolle Musigny. The wine is on the fruit-rich, plusher style of Burgundy that is beautifully perfumed and extremely adorable and like-able. 50% whole cluster we're used in the fermentation to add complexity in both aromatics and structure. Very nice and approachable young if you don't have the patience or the cellar to wait 10 years, but it will go the distance if you need it to. - Chris L
The Lignier family have deep roots in the village of Morey Saint Denis and own some of the very best vineyard sites in this village, and also in the 2 neighbouring villages Chambolle Musigny and Gevrey Chambertin. Virgile's father and grand-father had always produced wine and sold it to negotiants until Virgile started working with his father in the early 1990's and he decided to sell the wines himself. Now with almost 20 vintages of experience Virgile has moved the domaine to fully organic viticulture and is producing what many believe to be the best wines of this prestigious village.
