Hubert Lignier Gevrey Chambertin 1Er Combottes 2020

From old vines nurtured without chemicals, this 1er Cru Combottes delivers a beautifully structured Pinot Noir, combining classic Gevrey depth with refined precision. The 2020 shows a complex bouquet of black cherry, cassis, wild berries, forest floor and subtle cedar, with hints of espresso and gentle spice. On the palate, it is layered and concentrated, with ripe, powdery tannins, balanced acidity and a long, mineral-driven finish.

A full-bodied yet elegant red, perfect with roast duck, venison or earthy mushroom dishes, with excellent ageing potential over the next 10–15 years.
