A serious village wine built on old vines. Virgile Lignier has fully hit his stride; Flatiron met him years ago as a thoughtful young vigneron clearly going places, and now he's arrived, farming sustainably with organic treatments with ambient-yeast fermentations and whole-cluster where it serves the wine. This Morey-Saint-Denis Vieilles Vignes draws on the domaine's oldest village parcels, which deliver depth and concentration well above their classification. The 2015 was a rich, ripe vintage and this punches above village level, drinking well now with room to develop. Already hard to find, with prices expected to explode.

"Higher-pitched on the nose than the Rue de Vergy, offering scents of kirsch, violet and minerals. Juicier in the mouth too, displaying good penetration but modest flesh to its black fruit and violet flavors. The slightly drying finish hints at bitter chocolate." —Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

"The 2015 Morey St Denis Vieilles Vignes comes from three parcels including Très Girard and the village section of Chenevery, including 80% whole bunch grapes. It has an intriguing bouquet with more black fruit than red, dried rose petals plus hints of blue fruit developing in the glass, although it remains tightly wound for now. The palate is very fresh on the entry with impressive depth. I appreciate the vibrancy here, the energy flowing through the finish, with sappy red and black fruit emerging on the spicy, vivacious finish. Afford this 3-4 years in the cellar and you will have yourself a splendid Morey-Saint-Denis. This is excellent." —Neal Martin

More about Domaine Lignier-Michelot

Virgile Lignier-Michelot's eight-hectare parcel in Morey-Saint-Denis sits on some of Burgundy's most expressive terroir. Pinot Noir from premier and grand cru sites that taste like soil and time compressed into a glass. Becky Wasserman's selections bring these to America, where they're recognized as serious reds. Serious reds for serious collectors—no shortcuts, no fashion, just craft that respects the vineyard and the tradition.
