Hubert Lignier Description
The Ligniers own just under half a hectare of 50-year-old vines in this great premier cru, which sits just above Clos-Saint-Denis on the slope. This vineyard yields a wine of brooding tension, black of fruit and stern, with a rigorous acid profile and real power underpinning it. “Les Chaffots” is unfailingly a profound wine that beckons for some patience, but the purity of fruit is striking here, even in the context of such tight-grained structure.
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Chaffots 1er Cru was acutely impacted by the frost so there are just 2.5 barrels. This has a more tertiary nose, hints of white pepper and clove, cohesive and quite focused. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, sorbet-like on the entry, quite vibrant with a touch of black pepper towards the finish. Very fine.
