This wine is consistently very aromatic and incredibly attractive when young with great depth of aromas and remarkable generosity on the palate also. A stunning village wine that provides great pleasure from a very young age.

The Domane is under the care of Virgile Ligner. They also have tiny holdings in neighbouring Chambolle Musigny and Gevrey Chambertin. Virgile’s father and grand-father had always produced wine and sold it to negotiants until Virgile started working with his father in the early 1990’s and he decided to sell the wines himself. Now with almost 20 vintages of experience Virgile has moved the domaine to fully organic viticulture and is producing what many believe to be the best wines of this prestigious village. In the last 10 years Virgile has modified his wine-making using whole-bunch vinification ranging from 30%-100% pending on the vintage and the vineyard. He has also reduced the percentage of new oak (mostly Seguin-Moreau and Francois freres) for maturation with most wines seeing around 30% making its effect seamless in the final wines. He also completed a new winery back in 2013 that enables him to work with temperature control and to gain a very gentle extraction of tannins for all his wines. This results in wines are showing great precision and energy with remarkable perfume and also beautiful fine tannins and very silky structure. They are wines which are often very seductive at a young age which also clearly have the potential for ageing superbly. This very young domaine is now regarded among the very best in the Cotes de Nuits! \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lignier-michelot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41292730204344,"sku":"30204344","price":188.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4211\/3208\/products\/Lignier-Michelot_Morey_Saint_Denis_Vieilles_Vignes_2019.png?v=1648241079"},{"product_id":"bouchard-monthelie-1er-cru-les-duresses-2019","title":"Bouchard Monthelie 1er Cru Les Duresses 2019","description":"\u003ch4 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Wine\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocated between Volnay and Meursault, the village of Monthélie is much less known than its illustrious neighbours.
