A real crowd pleaser. Deep, fleshy, luscious, and voluminous. Black cherry fruit with some rose petal and cedar. Asian spices with air. Really expansive and plenty of authority to the finish.

The crunchy fruit underneath was fabulous and there is a great wine in here somewhere but for me it was obliterated by the level of reduction which was simply too prominent. Hopefully, time will ameliorate this?

Holding its cards much closer to the vest than 07 Reignots today, this has more structure and is more reserved. Similar to 09 Petit Monts in that there's just so much material, and today it's only hinting at the big future that is to come.
A rare privilege to drink these Liger-Belair wines, and we are splitting hairs as they've all been brilliant except one off bottle (a provenance issue rather than winemaking I believe).

The CFO's Birthday: Started a bit reductive, but eventually opened up a bit more. Not the most generous bouquet that I've come to expect, but had some nice, moderate spices and red berries. Not the best Comte Liger showing, but very thankful to have tasted this.
