One of the jewels in this domaine’s glimmering lineup, Lignier’s two hectares of this premier cru which sits just below grand cru Clos de la Roche comprise half of the entire surface of the vineyard. Benoit employs 30% whole clusters during fermentation and ages this cuvée in 20% new oak for 18 months. These 45-year-old vines yield a wine of classic Morey spice, with a complex and deep nose that loudly announces its pedigree as a grand-cru-flanking plot
