Thibault Liger Belair, Nuits St Georges 1er Cru, Les St Georges 2021	96 Decanter This is an epic wine in the cellar of Thibault Liger-Belair, tannic, powerful and deep. The fruit character is dark plum and blackberry with hints of smoke, leather, and cigar leaf. The texture is dense and tannic; the finish is long. Every aspect of this is substantial, yet it retains the elegance to appear perhaps even more sophisticated than the Clos Vougeot. In my opinion, it is certainly on the level of the grand cru wines. 95 Wine Spectator Leads with mint, menthol and smoky oak aromas, while flavors of blackberry and black cherry lurk beneath. Lacy and rich, with excellent harmony and a lingering finish of fruit, iron and spices. Shows terrific energy and length. Best from 2026 through 2045. 450 cases made, 75 cases imported.
