A gentle and delicately poised wine, stony, mineral driven, and tightly woven.

Domaine Hubert Lignier does things the right way--their way--from farming to fermentation to élevage. They practice "sensible combat" (lutte raisonnee) in the vineyards and don't use herbicides. Their wines are organic but not certified. They don't have to be. They don't need to pay some outsider to come in and tell them what to do. They don't give a damn and the wines are proof of their greatness. Use of new oak barrels is low--up to 50% on the Grand Crus Charmes Chambertin and Clos de la Roche.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 93
"Here the nose is aromatically similar to the Clos Baulet but spicier. On the palate the succulent, rich and beautifully textured and palate coating medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a dusty and slightly more complex finale that exhibits fine length. This is lovely and a wine that could be approached after only 4 to 5 years of cellaring yet reward 12 to 15."

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"The 2020 Morey-Saint-Denis La Riotte 1er Cru was completely de-stemmed this year. This possesses wonderful mineralité and tension on the nose, quite flinty and stony, translating the terroir with style. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grip, a citrus bead of acidity, modest depth but with a very appealing, peppery finish thanks partly to the 30% whole bunch. Excellent." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 94
"The 2020 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru La Riotte opens in the glass with aromas of cherries, warm spices, wild berries, peonies and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety, with lively acids and melting tannins, it concludes with a long, saline finish."

Decanter

D 93
"Bright raspberry fruit scented with salty mineral notes and a hint of smoke. The texture is fresh and lively, and although the parcel ripened early in 2020, the balance is spot on here. This 0.3ha parcel is in the centre of the village at the foot of the slope, opposite the Clos St-Denis. It lies directly under the combe and does not suffer too much from water stress."
