Domaine Hubert Lignier Clos de la Roche is a Grand Cru red Burgundy from the Côte de Nuits. This 2005 bottling is sourced from two parcels within the vineyard, including the historic Monts Luisants sector. Lignier is known for a classic, structured style achieved through 100% de-stemming and approximately 20 months of ageing in 30% new oak. The 2005 vintage provided ideal conditions for long-lived wines with high concentration. It presents a muscular palate of blackberries, liquorice and crushed stones, reflecting the density and power of the vintage.
