2009 - Gevrey-Chambertin Croix des Champs, Thibault Liger-Belair

Tasting Notes

88-90
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 11
(30% vendange entier; from 60-year-old vines planted on the wrong side of the road) Good deep red. Spicy red fruit aromas lifted by a floral nuance. Juicy rather than fleshy, with good energy from the stem component. Distinctly wild notes of gibier and smoke. A leaner style in the context of the vintage but already boasts enticing inner-mouth perfume.
