Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair Vosne Clos du Chateau 2009

To celebrate the introduction of the new emotional-rating scale, this wine showed its sensational beauty on New Year’s Eve. The 2009 edition of the Vosne-Romanee Clos du Chateau is showing brilliantly. The nose is organic and bursting with fruit and Vosne spices – forward, very energetic and expressive. On the palate, intense and very lively with excellent concentration, coming just after a delightful Roumier 2004 Chambolle. This has delightful effortless energy – a true vin d’emotion. I adore the vivid character of this wine. Very enjoyable now … and will keep.
