The 2023 Vieilles Vignes combines Chambolle’s aromatic finesse and freshness with the depth, structure and fine tannins derived from vines more than 60 years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVineyard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit comes from the Draseys and Gammaires parcels in the northern part of Chambolle-Musigny, close to the boundary with Morey-Saint-Denis.

Domaine Lignier-Michelot places a strong emphasis on freshness and purity of fruit, with whole-cluster fermentation used to express the character of each terroir. The domaine generally matures its wines for 10 to 13 months in barrel, followed by approximately four months in stainless steel, with new oak kept below 30%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCritic Reviews\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91–92\/100 — Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProducer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomaine Lignier-Michelot is based in Morey-Saint-Denis in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits. The Lignier family has cultivated vines in the village since the early 20th century, with estate bottling beginning in 1992. Today the domaine farms a little over eight hectares across Morey-Saint-Denis and neighbouring appellations including Chambolle-Musigny and Gevrey-Chambertin, together with Premier Cru and Grand Cru holdings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe domaine focuses on freshness, purity and faithful expression of terroir. No pesticides or herbicides are used in the vineyards, yields are carefully controlled, and whole bunches play an important role in the contemporary winemaking approach. New oak is used with restraint to preserve balance, freshness and Pinot Noir aromatic complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Domaine Lignier-Michelot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chambolle-Musigny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape Variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVineyards:\u003c\/strong\u003e Draseys and Gammaires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVine Age:\u003c\/strong\u003e More than 60 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 6,000 bottles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhole Bunch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 70–80%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaturation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10–13 months in barrel, followed by approximately 4 months in stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNew Oak:\u003c\/strong\u003e No more than 30%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWine Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Still Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSweetness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrinking Window:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2029–2039\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SSS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67642048610606,"sku":"5259657788","price":240.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/2023_Lignier_Michelot_Chambolle_Musigny_Vieilles_Vignes.png?v=1791351527","url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/products\/2023-domaine-lignier-michelot-chambolle-musigny-vieilles-vignes-750ml","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
