Nose had a touch of oak but the spice and red fruit is incredible opulent and forward. The palate is an absolute spice box. The texture is finely detailed with fine grai. tannin, pepper and deep broad fruit. The finish goes on forever like a carpet unfurling. Just a red carpet going on and on and on with sharp cherry fruit. The intensity and presence is so brilliant

Tasted 15 Liger Belair wines at the Paulee dinner for these wines and this was the one that stood out over all the others (including the 07 and 09 versions of the same wine). Amazing precision and focus with surprising accessibility at this age. I tried to make this glass last as long as possible but it was hard to resist. Liger Belair wines are, in general, very good. This one was fantastic.

Liger Belair Dinner - La Paulee 2019 (Eleven Madison Park): From Magnum, 148/240. Cool yet ripe fruit, some meat and mostly primary notes. Clean palate that encompasses throughout; very good reflection of the vintage quality. Not Rated.

Second time having this wine recently. Classic high toned red fruits. Spices. Whole cluster notes, stemmy, youthful and fresh. Really nice texture to this wine as well. Clearly too young to drink but a great check in on this wine. Definitely upside to the score with further development.
