Notes:
La Riotte is said to derive from an old dialect form related to “rue,” meaning a small path or lane. This climat, located in the heart of the Morey-Saint-Denis vineyard, is renowned for the elegance of its wines, which are approachable in their youth, fine and silky, in the spirit of Chambolle-Musigny. At Lignier, the vineyard from which this cuvée comes was planted in 1959 at the foot of Clos Saint-Denis, on a clay-limestone soil composed of many small stones. The aging potential is about ten years.
Les Chaffots, for its part, is a climat on the upper part of the slope, like Monts-Luisants. The wines produced from it are renowned for their freshness and minerality, as well as their structure. At Domaine Hubert Lignier, this vineyard parcel was planted in 1968, above Clos-Saint-Denis, at an elevation of 330 meters. Its excellent exposure allows it to combine freshness and ripeness, resulting in one of the estate’s deepest-colored wines.
The Morey-Saint-Denis Vieilles Vignes cuvée is a blend of two parcels: Faconnières, a vineyard planted in 1947 and 1960, and Chenevery, planted in 1936, 1942, and 1943. Located near Clos de la Roche, its soil is very thin. The Vieilles Vignes cuvée produces dense, complex, and smooth wines, made from small clusters affected by millerandage.
Ranked among the exceptional vintages, 2019 stands out for its rare balance. After a mild winter, a cold April, and a favorable spring, June turned out to be cool and rainy. The summer, which was sunny and at times scorching, was saved by the August rains, which promoted even ripening. With remarkable phenolic ripeness, the grapes were harvested as early as September 17 at the estate. The 2019 vintage is distinguished by its outstanding aging potential and by wines that combine depth, density, structure, freshness, and finesse.
Domaine Hubert Lignier will be pleased to welcome the winning bidder, accompanied by a guest of their choice, for a day at the estate during the harvest of the 2027 vintage. The date of the visit will be mutually agreed upon by the buyer and Domaine Hubert Lignier.
