Tasting Notes

88-90
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 11
(the only 2009 here that was completely destemmed) Bright, dark red. Slightly roasted aromas of blackberry, licorice, violet and graphite. Fat and lush but a bit heavy. The tannins cut off the wine's fruit early and build on the back. The warmest in style of Lignier's 2009, missing the energy that can be provided by vinification with stems.

Chambolle-Musigny

Chambolle-Musigny, a prestigious appellation in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, is renowned for its elegant, aromatic Pinot Noir wines. Known for their finesse and complex aromas of red berries, violets, and earth, these wines are often described as the most "feminine" of Burgundy. The appellation's two Grand Cru vineyards, Bonnes Mares and Musigny, produce highly sought-after wines with depth and ageing potential. Notable producers include Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé, Domaine Georges Roumier, and Domaine Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, all celebrated for their refined winemaking.
