Georges Lignier et Fils Chambolle Musigny 2018 里尼耶父子酒莊（香波-慕西尼村）紅葡萄酒

Established at the beginning of the 20^th Century, Domaine Georges Lignier has successfully remained a family-owned estate.  It was the domaine’s founder, Georges Lignier, who was responsible for transforming it in to its current state; now a grand-father himself, it all started when he had inherited some vines from his father Jules. The buildings which the property occupies today came in to the family’s ownership at this time. He was determined to make it one of the largest and most important properties in Morey Saint Denis. To which end, he has been more than successful, as the domaine now covers 16 hectares. George’s son, Bernard, formed a partnership with him in 1949 in order to help with the planting of vines.  It was at this time that the domain broke away from the local cooperative, so as to concentrate on making wine under its own label. His own young son Georges, who took over from his father in 1970, established an integrated winemaking policy at the domain and greatly increased the bottling capacity. To this day, he contributes invaluable support drawing on his experience and shrewdness.

However, a new chapter has been added to the story with the arrival of his nephew Benoit Stehly at the property in 2002, after completing his oenology studies.

The domain now covers 17 appellations over 16 hectares, distributed over 50 parcels of vines, planted principally with Pinot Noir.

Country: Burgundy, France

Grape type: Pinot Noir

Tasting Note: The oldest vines dating back to the 1930s gives this village wine plenty of personality coming from two plots north of the Chambolle village whose soils are rich in iron. The wine has wild floral aromas and light mineral ferric notes with silk-like melted tannins. The purity of fruit on the palate is fantastic with great mid palate weight and expansive breadth. This is excellent quality for village level.

里尼耶父子酒莊（Domaine Georges Lignier et Fils）位於法國布根地（Burgundy）夜丘（Cote de Nuits）產區的莫雷-聖丹尼（Morey-Saint-Denis）產酒村，是該產酒村內一座家族式精品酒莊。　　

里尼耶父子酒莊由喬治·里尼耶（Georges Lignier）創建於20世紀初期，當時，喬治從父親朱爾斯（Jules）手中繼承了一些葡萄園，以此為基礎建立了里尼耶父子酒莊。喬治立志要將酒莊建設成為莫雷-聖丹尼村的龍頭酒莊，因此里尼耶家族的幾代人都在為此而奮鬥。 1949年，喬治的兒子伯納德（Bernard）加入里尼耶父子酒莊，和喬治一起管理葡萄園。也正是從這段時間開始，里尼耶父子酒莊開始集中精力釀造屬於自家品牌的葡萄酒。 1970年，伯納德的小兒子喬治接管了里尼耶父子酒莊，他為酒莊制定了完整的葡萄酒釀造規範，大大提高了酒莊的釀酒技術。 2002年，小喬治的侄子伯努瓦·史特里（Benoit Stehly）在完成了他的釀酒學業後，也成為里尼耶父子酒莊的一員，從此酒莊的發展翻開了一個新的篇章。

葡萄品種：100% Pinot Noir。

風土：Chambolle Musigny村是全布根地中最為優雅細緻的代表村莊。最知名的超一級園“愛侶園（Les Amoureuses）”正是位於此地，更是加深了此村溫柔婉約，浪漫綺麗的風格印象。

釀造：堅持手工採收，兩次嚴格選果，80%的除梗後，進行4~5天的低溫冷浸泡，之後導入控溫槽中，幫助原生酵母啟動發酵，再換置於小橡木桶中進行18~20個月的長期培養。新桶比例特級園約50%，一級園約30%，其餘都為舊桶，並且在裝瓶前的一個月，會再進行一次過桶，以天然方式進行過濾沉澱。

合計0.71公頃的葡萄園，來自位於一級園「Les Sentiers」下方的兩塊葡萄園「Les Drazey」和「Les Bussieres」。當中更包含高比例超過70歲的老藤，使得這款村莊級葡萄酒帶有充分的深度與複雜度。紅色水果與飄逸的花香與香料風味。
