91+ JG. "There are now three distinct Gevrey villages bottlings chez Lignier, with the original domaine bottling comprised of two parcels of vines- one high up on the Combes de Lavaux and the other right next to Clos Prieur. This is really lovely and quite classic in profile in 2015, delivering a fine and complex blend of red and black cherries, espresso, black minerality, incipient grilled meat, a touch of cedar and a gentle topnote of mustard seed. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and pure on the attack, with a sappy core, tangy acids and lovely focus and grip on the fine-grained finish. High class AC."
