History: Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair is a highly regarded Pinot Noir producer located in Nuits-Saint-Georges in the Côte de Nuits subregion of Burgundy, France. The Marey and Liger-Belair families have been involved with the vineyards, sale, and trade of Burgundian wines for well over a century, but it was not until 2001 that Thibault Liger-Belair created Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair to exploit the family’s historic and noteworthy vineyards.

Tasting Notes: 

Wonderful substance and fine-grained, elegant tannins revealing pure fruit. On the nose, the quality of the terroir comes through: beautifully defined, mineral-driven, hints, black fruit. Lovely focus. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannins, dark berry fruit laced with white pepper, merging into a finely structured and persistent finish.
