Thibault Liger Belair Successeurs Bourgogne "Les Deux Terres" 2020, 750ml

“Les Deux Terres”, meaning “The Two Lands”. 85% of the blend is gamay from the Beaujolais crus of Chénas, Moulin-à-Vent and Morgon, supplemented by 15% Pinot Noir from the Côte d’Or. 

Harvesting is manual with 30% of whole clusters. 3 weeks of fermentation with a very soft extraction. Aged in oak barrels (no new barrels) for a period of 12 months.

Tasting Note:

Rich black purple, considerable power here, but some grace as well. A little bit reductive. Plenty of guts here, vibrant fruit, not too acid and very long.
