Moulin-à-Vent Les Vignes Centenaires
2014
Thibault Liger-Belair comes from a great winemaking family that has deep roots in Burgundy: he is a direct descendant of the Napoleonic General Louis Liger-Belair, who acquired the Chateau de Vosne in 1815 when he married Ludovie Marey, whose family had been Burgundy negociants since 1720. Youthful, passionate and always full of ideas, Thibault trained as an oenologist, but had his start in the wine industry as a wine buyer. He is also a former rugby player with a genuine 'down to earth'...

(40% whole cluster; this will be bottled only in magnums). Strong reduction masks
the underlying fruit. I very much like the beguiling texture of the concentrated and serious yet relatively fine medium-bodied flavors that are shaped by dense but fine tannins on the detailed, elegant and gorgeously long finish. This is terrific though it’s
a wine that is going to require ample patience.
