"The parcel of vines in les Poisets that Laurent Lignier purchases grapes from were planted in 1947, and these old vines have made a lovely wine in 2011. There are five barrels of this lovely village wine in the cellars this year, with one barrel out of five new oak. The superb bouquet is deep and youthfully complex, offering up scents of cassis, dark berries, woodsmoke, gamebirds, dark soil tones and espresso. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, young and properly chewy, with a lovely core, fine focus and purity, ripe tannins and a very long, soil-driven and complex finish. This is an excellent village wine."
