Domaine Hubert Lignier, Pinot Noir, Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru, Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte de Nuits, France 2018
Domaine Hubert Lignier, Pinot Noir, Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru, Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte de Nuits, France 2018
In 2018, Hubert and Laurent sourced grapes from a 50-year-old plot in this hallowed grand cru — a total of only two barrels of wine. Of the three grand crus issuing forth from Lignier’s cellar, this is the most elegant, airy, and feminine, emphasizing higher-toned spices and floral elements in its aromatics, and with a mineral-drenched, vibrant palate full of lift and energy. Nonetheless, its tightly coiled structure and slightly inward-facing demeanor signal the need for some cellar time in order for the wine to fully blossom.
