Beginning with the 2014 vintage, Hubert and Laurent have sourced grapes from a 50-year-old plot in this minuscule grand cru—producing just two barrels of wine per year. Of the three grand crus issuing forth from the Ligniers’ cellar, this is the most airy and delicate, emphasizing higher-toned spices and floral elements in its aromatics, and with a mineral-drenched, lifted palate of notable energy. It spends 18 months in wood—one new 350-liter cask and one older.

This wine is a Library Release and has just arrived from the estate.
