Understanding Hubert Lignier, Morey-Saint-Denis, Rouge, Burgundy
Embracing a philosophy that intertwines traditional viticulture with a respect for nature, the Lignier family's approach to the Morey-Saint-Denis Rouge is sustainable with minimalistic intervention in the cellar. This dedication to authenticity is evident in the wine's fermentation with indigenous yeasts and ageing for 20 to 22 months in carefully selected French oak. This step enhances the wine's character without overshadowing its intrinsic qualities. This Pinot Noir features layers of dark fruit, spice and earthy undertones underscored by a refined tannic structure and a lingering finish. This wine has considerable ageing potential.
