Domaine Lignier-Michelot, Les Chenevery, Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru AOP
HK$ 900
Domaine Lignier-Michelot is a Burgundy producer based in the Morey-Saint-Denis appellation. Pinot Noir is the mainstay variety and the domaine counts some highly regarded premier cru and grand cru vineyards among its holdings.
Les Chenevery is a small Premier Cru climat.The vineyard is split in two by local AOC law: only the higher, western half is classified as Premier Cru. Les Chenevery Premier Cru wines are smooth and medium bodied with some aromatic notes of spice. Les Chenevery has a similar soil makeup to the vineyards that surround it. Limestone and clay are found in the vineyards here, giving vines a well-drained environment where water is stored in the clay. This is one of Morey-Saint-Denis’ lesser-known vineyards, due to its small size and slightly less favorable position. However, several highly respected domaines make a Les Chenevery Premier Cru wine, including Domaine Lignier-Michelot.
