2018 Domaine Hubert Lignier Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru Cote de Nuits, France

Details

From Rosenthal: In 2014, Hubert and Laurent sourced grapes from a 50-year-old plot in this hallowed grand crua total of only two barrels of wine. Of the three grand crus issuing forth from Ligniers 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. For many years, we offered wines from this same parcel when representing the Domaine des Chezeaux!

No case discounts.
