Description

Made from gloriously old vines, `Aux Reignots` is a Pinot Noir with elegant flinty notes, with beautiful richness and power. In many respects, Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair is a very recent wine estate, created at the beginning of the year 2000 by Count Louis-Michel Liger-Belair, agricultural engineer and oenologist, who took over the running of the select vineyard parcels remaining in the hands of the family. Yet it is in fact a domaine with over 200 years of family tradition at the service of the vines and wines of Burgundy and Vosne-Romanée in particular. The 2005 vintage is offered here in fabulous Magnum format.
