Thibault Liger Belair Successeurs Corton Grand Cru "Les Renardes" 2020, 750ml

100% Pinot Noir from a parcel of old vines managed by the domaine since 2005 in the Les Renardes climat (Aloxe-Corton side of the Corton hill) on limestone and marl soils with good exposure. The domaine practices sustainable viticulture. The grapes are hand harvested with approximately 40% whole cluster fermentation. The wine is aged 16-18 months in French oak barrels with around 30-40% new oak.

Tasting Note:
Aromas of black cherry, plum, violet and subtle spice on the nose. Powerful attack. Concentrated fruit on the mid-palate with structured tannins and fresh acidity. The finish shows great length and 15-20 years of ageing potential.
