The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes had no punch-downs during the fermentation and includes 80% whole bunches. It has a forward nose of blackberry, hints of cassis and violet petals. The medium-bodied palate offers sapid black and red fruit, a touch of cracked black pepper and quite a structured, Morey-like finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle. Fine purity of fruit here.

From half a hectare of Drazey (below Sentiers) and a hectare of Gamaires (that's lower down the slope), Lignier's 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes offers up aromas of dark berries, orange zest and warm spices. Medium-bodied, lively and concentrated, it's bright and pure, with a seamless profile. Amounting to some 35 barrels, this is one of the domaine's flagship bottlings.
