THIBAULT LIGER-BELAIR
Haute Côtes de Nuits 'Clos du Prieuré' 2021
The 2021 Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Clos du Prieuré comes from vines on white marn soils and is now picked in the middle of harvest. This is quite powerful on the nose with ebullient red cherry, kirsch and rose petal scents. Incense emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. This has a bit more nervosité than the Corvées de Villy with commendable persistence.
