2006 CORTON RENARDES Grand Cru Thibault Liger-Belair
| Grapes: Pinot Noir | Origin: France, Burgundy |
Lea & Sandeman review
Much less gourmand, it has a mineral roundness and fat, and also a firm stiff-backed straightness. "Very calcaire" says Thibault, "this is a real Grand Cru".Other reviews and comments
Good full red. Reduced smoky, meaty nose. A step up in lift and juiciness from the Rognet, with a suave, fine-grained texture and enticing inner-mouth aromatic character. Offers a pleasing combination of supple texture and energy. Finishes with broad, ripe tannins. Showing very well considering that it was racked three days before my visit.
89-92/100

This too is very strongly reduced and the nose is unreadable but the forward, rich, full and intense flavors are broad-shouldered but don?t seem to have the same depth of material as the Rognets yet it?s even longer. This is very youthfully awkward and thus a bit of a head scratcher at the moment. 2012+
89 - 91?
