Liger Belair dinner. 1st flight was a trio of his white 2012-2014 vintages. They all had ripe stone, citrus, tropical fruits, white flower, honey & creamy texture. I preferred the 2012. — 5 years ago

Wow, what a nose. So regal and beautiful! Exotic sweet spices. A bit more black than red fruit but difficult to pinpoint what fruit. Immediately cries out to Vosne Romanee. Quite like Liger Belair once again. Touch of sweetness in the end. Class! — 6 years ago

This striking blend of Beaujolais Gamay and Côte d'Or Pinot Noir offers cool scents of black cherry and licorice and a noble rusticity to its very ripe, plush flavors of black raspberry and spices energized by saline minerality and a note of granite. Broad tannins won't prevent early enjoyment. (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2018) $25 — 6 years ago

Darker, more structured. White pepper early on, later more capsicum, cool and silky, higher toned. Would have liked it more if it wasn't for the peppers — 8 years ago

I really the the philosophy behind these wines. Made by Mike Etzel and Louis-Michel Liger-Belair, the fire comes from Jory soils, the flood from willakenzie . A powerful, big, and unmistakably new world pinot -- but remarkably balanced and not without grace. Fleshy raspberries, cinnamon, and scorched earth. I could drink many of these -- if however they weren't so aggressively priced... — 9 years ago

Much better than the 2011 Reignots. Intensely floral with sweet red cherry nose and spices. Difficult to believe that such an elegant and ethereal wine is from 2009. The sweetness towards the end on the palate was deceptive. Made us think the wine was 2010 when in fact the sweetness is attributed to the Suchot plot. — 5 years ago

Bright, but quite ripe, red cherry with almond, nice herbaceous notes and light nutmeg. Reductive notes are there, but not overpowering... so a plus for me. YMMV. A little time to breathe helps.

Thanks to 2015, this is delicious now, but there’s enough grip to hold for a couple years.

So, nowadays we’re paying $48 in Dallas for Hautes-Côtes de Nuits... 2015 is a banner year for everyone apparently. — 6 years ago

Delicious. Deep and dark yet also lifting with almost citrus acids. So juicy. Love the 2010 transparency. Crunchy granite infused finish. Complex and utterly compelling. Long finish. — 8 years ago
