The 2019 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru comprises just one barrel this year. It has a very well-defined bouquet of ebullient red berry fruit laced with sous-bois and truffle aromas. The palate is very harmonious and elegant, delivering supple tannins and impressive weight toward the finish of pure raspberry and wild strawberry fruit, plus a tang of white pepper on the aftertaste. Drinking range: 2023 - 2040 Rating: 92-94 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Dec 2020)
Thibault Liger-Belair Successeurs
The lack of the word 'domaine' in the name signals that this is a n茅gociant wine from Thibault Liger-Belair. On the whole Thibault buys grapes having tended the vines with his own team, so that the wines are domaine wines in all but name.
