Domaine Thibault Liger Belair Charmes Chambertin 'Aux Charmes' Grand Cru 2019
The Liger-Belair surname carries some serious weight in Burgundy: The comte (count) Louis Liger-Belair was a Napoleonic General who acquired the Chateau de Vosne in 1815, and the family went on to amass an incredible collection of Burgundyās best vineyards, including āLa Romaneeā and āLa Tache.ā More than a century later, in 1933, complicated inheritance laws forced the family to sell their vineyards at auction, although some were re-acquired by future generations. That was the point at which Thibault Liger-Belairās forebears went their own way, focusing on vineyards primarily in Nuits-Saint-Georges.
The nose is lively and well-defined, just joyful red cherry and strawberry fruit here. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, quite linear and structured, and with a fine line of acidity towards the finish.
