From a domaine whose wines are "getting better and better" (Jancis Robinson MW), this is a beautifully nuanced Chambolle. Highly praised winemaker Benoit Stehly has produced in this excellent vintage a red with silky fruit, length and complexity.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Wine
Domaine Georges Lignier is a third generation family domaine with enviable vineyards holdings, including the largest share of Grand Cru Clos Saint Denis. The family has a total of 16 hectares of vines, dotted over 50 premium parcels throughout Burgundy. In 2008, Georges's nephew Benoît Stehly took charge of the estate, "since which time the wines have become finer and finer" (Jancis Robinson MW). Burgundy expert Serena Sutcliffe MW concurs, “this domaine very often produces the essence of the (Pinot Noir) grape" – that’s to say, wines of remarkable purity. Only seasoned barrels are used in this villages Chambolle, so the oak remains subtle. Let the wine breathe before serving, or cellar. A fine red for chicken with morel mushrooms.

Red fruited and tangy on the palate with lots of acidity to balance and give a mouth-watering finish
