2008 Nuits-St Georges, Les St Georges, 1er Cru, Thibault Liger-Belair

The charismatic, charming and all-round top chap Thibault Liger-Belair is blessed with a sizeable chunk of this vineyard and is unsurprisingly involved in the movement to have it promoted to grand cru status. His recent vintages suggest that he has a point.
(Joss Fowler, Private Account Manager)

A miniscule yield but a marvellous wine, this 1er Cru Nuits-St Georges has some delightful peppery touches to the remarkably elegant and persistent fruit. Watch this develop over the next decade.
(Jasper Morris MW, BBR Buyer)

Notes of plum and violets that precede rich and full-bodied flavors that are concentrated, beautifully textured but quite serious, all wrapped in a firm, ripe and strikingly long finish. A classic Les St. Georges. Sweet spot Outstanding.

Tasted at Flint Wine’s 2008 horizontal in London. This is a little muffled on the nose, the wood just a little strong. The palate is medium-bodied with rigid tannins, a little hardness but that should dissipate with time.
