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'...

There is a perfumed, floral character to the red and black fruit, with a fresh, lively texture and a supple, approachable tannic line. This 0.4ha site on the north (Vosne) side of village is just below the band of premier crus in the influence of the cooling Combe de la Serrée. Liger-Belair fermented with 40% whole clusters and ages in 30% new casks.
