Thibault Liger Belair Successeurs Savigny les Beaune "Clos du Village" Blanc 2022 , 750ml

Produced since the 2017 vintage, this cuvée comes from the west side of Savigny in the Lieu-dit called “Le Village.” It’s a small, 0.2-hectare plot surrounded by a wall. The east/south-west facing plots are established on a hilltop above the 1er Cru 'Clos du Roi.' The soil is a mix of clay, limestone, and sand, deep and well-draining. The grapes are harvested manually and undergo a long press of three hours. Fermentation occurs in oak barrels, with no filtration and light fining using bentonite. Aged in oak barrels (no new barrels) for a period of 15 months. Tasting Note: Aromas of white peach, citrus, apple and subtle hazelnut on the nose. Creamy attack. Good concentration on the mid-palate with balanced acidity and mineral notes. The finish is long and composed. Region: Savigny Les Beaune Variety: Chardonnay Rating: Jasper Morris 89-91
