    The wine

    This cru produced by the fantastic Thibault Liger-Belair calls for pairings with characterful game dishes finished with a distinctive sauce. There are some hearty animal notes in this cuvée, with aromas of leather and black fruit.
    This wine comes from a 0.37-hectare parcel planted in 1965. It is located at the centre of a slope and planted on pebbly ground and black-clay soil. The producer applies all his attention and delicacy to the vines as well as the winery to craft a fine wine, one that fully resounds with the famous Corton appellation it comes from.
