The 2022 Domaine Lignier-Michelot Savigny-lès-Beaune offers a refined and elegant expression of Pinot Noir from one of the Côte de Beaune's most charming appellations. Sourced from carefully selected parcels in the village of Savigny-lès-Beaune, the wine showcases the purity and complexity of its terroir, with a harmonious balance of fruit, spice, and subtle earthiness. The vineyards, located on the southern side of the village, benefit from sandy soils that lend themselves to producing wines with a delicate, floral character, while the northern-facing slopes impart the wine with a lovely juiciness and a touch of spice.

The 2022 vintage is fresh and vibrant, with aromas of red cherries, raspberries, and violets. The palate is supple and balanced, with bright red fruit flavors accented by nuances of spice and light herbal notes. The wine's smooth texture and silky tannins provide an elegant mouthfeel, while the finish is long and refreshing, with a lingering hint of minerality that speaks to the wine’s exceptional terroir. Ready to enjoy now, this wine will also continue to develop over the next few years, making it an excellent choice for both immediate drinking and cellaring.

Domaine Lignier-Michelot is a family-run wine estate located in the heart of Burgundy’s prestigious Côte de Nuits. Founded by Virgile Lignier, the estate spans 10.5 hectares across some of Morey-Saint-Denis' finest vineyard sites, as well as in neighbouring Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny. With a winemaking history passed down through generations, Virgile Lignier is the driving force behind the domaine’s rise to prominence. His passion for creating exceptional Pinot Noir is matched by a commitment to organic viticulture, which has become the cornerstone of the domaine's approach. Lignier has transformed the family estate into one of the top producers in the Côte de Nuits, known for wines that express the true essence of their terroir while showcasing a balance of finesse, elegance, and structure.

Virgile’s winemaking philosophy is rooted in minimal intervention and the pursuit of purity. By incorporating techniques such as whole-bunch fermentation and reducing the use of new oak, he allows the natural characteristics of each vineyard to shine. The result is wines that are vibrant, complex, and age-worthy, with a precision and energy that reflects both Virgile’s experience and the exceptional terroirs of Morey-Saint-Denis. The domaine’s wines are revered for their clarity, elegance, and ability to evolve gracefully, making them highly sought after by collectors and wine enthusiasts alike.

At Domaine Lignier-Michelot, the focus is on crafting wines that reflect the true character of the vineyard and the unique terroirs of the Côte de Nuits. Virgile Lignier’s winemaking philosophy is rooted in respect for the land and a belief that great wines begin in the vineyard. The estate is certified organic and follows biodynamic practices to ensure the health of the vines and the sustainability of the land. Lignier’s philosophy is based on minimal intervention in the cellar, allowing the grapes to express their natural character through gentle vinification. By using whole-bunch fermentation and limiting the use of new oak, Lignier creates wines that are transparent, balanced, and complex, with an emphasis on clarity and purity.

The domaine’s commitment to quality is reflected in the precision of the winemaking process. Each vineyard parcel is vinified separately to highlight the distinctive characteristics of the site, and the wines are aged in carefully selected barrels, ensuring that the oak enhances the wine without overpowering it. The result is a portfolio of wines that showcase the elegance and finesse of Pinot Noir, with the ability to age gracefully over time. Domaine Lignier-Michelot’s wines are a true expression of the Côte de Nuits, with a balance of fruit, minerality, and structure that make them exceptional both now and in the future.
