H Lignier Morey Saint Denis 1er Cru Les Sorbets 2023

The 2023 Domaine Hubert Lignier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Les Sorbets is a highly limited Pinot Noir from Burgundy, with only four barrels produced in this vintage. Les Sorbets (often spelled Les Sorbé) is a Premier Cru site situated immediately downslope from the prestigious Grand Crus Clos de Tart and Clos des Lambrays.

Hubert Lignier is known for a classic, powerful, and savory Morey-Saint-Denis character. In 2023, Laurent Lignier destemmed the fruit entirely due to a shorter ripening period for the stems, noting that the thick skins provided ample tannin and "terroir-transparency".

"Red fruit" and "big power", notes of sweet spices, very ripe fruit, and complex aromatics due to millerandage (small, concentrated grapes).
