Tasting Notes
Aux Chezaux joins directly on to Grand cru Charmes Chambertin. Quite a statement. Integrated oak and around 40% whole bunch with solid volume of both flavour and weight, like many of the wines from Lignier Michelot. Plums, violets and game - classic attributes and unmistakably Burgundy! - 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.
