2020 Thibault Liger-Belair 'Le Clos du Prieure' Hautes-Cotes de Nuits

Winemaker Notes:  The nose is rich and deep, it is a wine that surprises with its richness offering pretty notes of black fruits. This material is balanced by a refreshing tension on the end of the mouth which gives it a nice length. This plot produces supple and deep Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, always with a very good maturity.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Decanter - "Liger-Belair bought a little more than a hectare of vines in Arcenant in 2004, at 450m on south-facing slopes in white marls. The grapes are destemmed and gently fermented with little extraction before ageing in 30% new casks. Lush fruit character, darker than his other cuvées from the Hautes Côtes, a rich density and firm tannins that bode well for future ageing."
