The Master's Touch on a Historic Grand Cru. While Louis-Michel Liger-Belair is famous for his Domaine wines, his Comte Liger-Belair (Maison) label offers a rare opportunity to taste wines crafted with the exact same philosophy and precision, sourced from the finest parcels in Burgundy.

The Wine: Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Clos de Vougeot is legendary, but its vast size means quality varies. Louis-Michel Liger-Belair selects fruit only from the most prestigious sectors of the vineyard. He then applies his signature "infusion" winemaking technique—using the same barrels and care as his La Romanée—to transform the naturally powerful fruit into a wine of elegance and finesse.

The Style: Power Meets Silk This is not a rustic Clos de Vougeot. It is polished, spicy, and incredibly aromatic. It retains the Grand Cru's characteristic earthiness and structure but wraps it in the "liquid cashmere" texture that Liger-Belair is famous for.

The Vintage: 2022 A generous and ripe vintage. The 2022 offers a core of succulent black fruit (black cherry, blackberry) layered with notes of violet, graphite, and sweet Asian spices. It is approachable and hedonistic.

Tasting Profile

  • The Nose: Deep and complex. Aromas of dark berries, forest floor, sandalwood, and fine espresso.

  • The Palate: Structured yet velvety. The tannins are fine-grained, supporting a rich mid-palate of fruit and a long, savory finish.

  • The Verdict: A Grand Cru that delivers the Liger-Belair magic at a relatively accessible point compared to his Monopoles.

Why It’s Special

  • 🦁 Liger-Belair Craftsmanship: Made by the same team and in the same cellar as La Romanée.
