2021 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru, Georges Lignier

Bonnes-Mares, Burgundy, France

Situated in the heart of Morey-Saint-Denis, Domaine Georges Lignier is a fifth-generation family estate with a rich Burgundian heritage. Under the stewardship of Benoît Stehly, great-nephew of Georges Lignier, the domaine has become known for its classical, terroir-expressive Pinot Noir. With over 16 hectares of prime vineyard holdings, including several prestigious Grand Crus such as Clos de la Roche, Clos Saint-Denis, and Bonnes-Mares, the estate blends traditional techniques with a deep respect for nature and site.

Bonnes-Mares is one of Burgundy’s most celebrated Grand Crus, straddling the border between Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis. Known for its powerful structure and ageing potential, this site produces wines of depth, minerality, and aromatic finesse. Domaine Georges Lignier’s parcel lies within the Morey-Saint-Denis sector, giving their Bonnes-Mares an added layer of earthy, muscular intensity to complement its refined floral notes.

The 2021 vintage brings an ethereal quality to this formidable terroir. In the glass, it reveals a captivating bouquet of black cherry, wild raspberry, crushed rose petals, and subtle spice, accented by hints of graphite and forest floor. The palate is layered and powerful, yet remarkably precise and poised, with a dense core of dark red fruit framed by firm, ripe tannins and a vibrant mineral spine. Despite its youthful concentration, there’s a thread of elegance and lift that carries through to a long, noble finish.

The 2021 Bonnes-Mares from Georges Lignier is a wine of grand scale and understated grandeur, a true reflection of its terroir and a testament to the domaine’s thoughtful, time-honoured approach. Enjoy over the next 15 to 20 years, or decant in its youth for a glimpse of its extraordinary potential.
