The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Vieilles Vignes is superb, wafting from the glass with a complex bouquet of warm spices, raspberries, cherries, dark chocolate and candied peel. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, with the most depth and dimension of Ligniers premiers crus, its deep core of fruit largely concealing the wines fine-grained structuring tannins, concluding with a saline finish. This cuve hails from a parcel that straddles the climats Faconnires and Chenevery that was planted in 1936, 1942 and 1943, and which the Lignier family has always vinified as a single cuve.
