"The 2017 Clos Vougeot from Domaine Liger-Belair is truly exceptional this year. The bouquet is very deep and complex, offering up a constellation of black cherries, black raspberries, a touch of red plum, gamebird, a complex base of soil tones and nutty new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and soil-driven in personality, with ripe, suave tannins, good acids and excellent length and grip on the long and very classy finish. Fine, fine juice."

Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
2017 in Burgundy delivered generous yields and fresh, elegant wines; the whites are especially fine, bright and precise, while the reds are charming, supple and aromatic, drinking well relatively early.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
