The Marey and Liger-Belair families have had a century-long involvement with Burgundian vineyards, wine sales, and trade. However, it wasn`t until 2001 that Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair was established to unlock the potential of the family`s historic and renowned vineyards. The estate currently manages 9 hectares of its own vineyards and sources nearly as much from purchased grapes. This release is their Premier Cru `Les Gruenchers’ from 2015, a vintage known for its relatively early harvest, which turned out to be highly successful, with most grapes achieving optimal ripeness.
Vinous
(40% vendange entier; 50% new oak; this wine was not made in 2016 owing to the frost): Bright, dark red. Terrific crushed-rock lift to the red berry and floral aromas. Suave and fine-grained on entry, then larger-scaled on the back half, opening out and building on the finish. Tannins are dusty and broad. Very shy now but leaves behind a lovely perfume in the empty glass.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2017
