Vineyard Au Leurey

A vineyard the other side of the road from the Clos de L'Arlot in Premeaux-Prissey, with vines planted in 1937. It's a one hectare plot, with quite a thin soil - 30cm at the top getting to 1.5m deep at the bottom. Very ripe dark fruit, ripe blackberry, a warm smiling sort of ripeness, but still freshly mineral with a succulent juice. Quite a gentle extraction here, says Thibault. Drinking range: 2024 - 2030 L&S (Oct 2020)

(40% whole cluster). An earthy nose of various dark berries and a whiff of the sauvage. The succulent, round and reasonably vibrant middle weight flavors possess solid depth and persistence on the rustic, powerful and tautly muscular finish. A perfectly good if not special CdNV. Drinking range: 2026 - Rating: 87-89 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2021)

The 2019 C么te de Nuits Au Leurey originates from a site next to Clos de Marechale, populated by vines planted in 1937. It offers raspberry and cranberry fruit on the nose, light woodland scents percolating through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with candied red fruit on the entry, quite structured for a C么te de Nuits, and displays gentle grip on the finish. Fine. Drinking range: 2023 - 2030 Rating: 87-89 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.
