A notably ripe but fresh nose displays notes of pepper, floral hints and essence of earthy red berry fruit scents. There is excellent richness to the utterly delicious and seductively textured flavors that possess fine concentration on the balanced and persistent finish that offers good but not special complexity. 2017+ Rating: 88 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2014)

Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair, Beaujolais

Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair have purchased eight prime parcels of vines in Moulin-a-Vent. The grapes were sold off in 2008 because they felt it took more than just one year working with the vines to get them to perform. 'My objective was not to buy a domaine, but to buy vineyards in different spots. What is very important for me', says Liger-Belair,'is to showcase the difference between each type of granite and each exposure.' Two refrigerated trucks a day delivered fruit to be pressed in Nuits-Saint-Georges (all destemmed in the 2009 vintage and only gently pumped over to 'infuse', never punched down) and raised in used barriques.
