Virgile Lignier is one of those rare Burgundy vignerons whose wines somehow miraculously get better with each successive vintage. We have been tasting his wines critically since 1999 -- they were great then and they are even better now.

How does he it? Through constant improvement in the vineyards and at the winery, year after year. By growing better grapes, by selecting only the best, by staying out of the way in the cellar, by becoming better at everything he does. The wines have a remarkable purity and depth of flavor yet are delicate and light on their feet - "airien" is a good word.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 91
"Ripe, fresh and decidedly floral-suffused aromas are comprised by notes of plum, black raspberry and spice. The succulent, rich and attractively textured medium weight flavors exude evident minerality on the youthfully austere, dusty and noticeably more structured finale. This could use better depth so a few years of keeping should help."

Antonio Galloni

AG 91
"The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes had no punch-downs during the fermentation and includes 80% whole bunches. It has a forward nose of blackberry, hints of cassis and violet petals. The medium-bodied palate offers sapid black and red fruit, a touch of cracked black pepper and quite a structured, Morey-like finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle. Fine purity of fruit here." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 91
"From half a hectare of Drazey (below Sentiers) and a hectare of Gamaires (that's lower down the slope), Lignier's 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes offers up aromas of dark berries, orange zest and warm spices. Medium-bodied, lively and concentrated, it's bright and pure, with a seamless profile. Amounting to some 35 barrels, this is one of the domaine's flagship bottlings." -William Kelley
