Georges Lignier Bonnes-Mares 1989

Domaine Georges Lignier is a renowned winegrowing estate located in Burgundy, in the prestigious Bonnes-Mares appellation. The Bonnes-Mares vineyard straddles the villages of Morey-Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny, two of the most famous wine-growing communes of the Côte de Nuits. 

The Bonnes-Mares terroir is characterized by a rich, complex clay-limestone soil, providing ideal conditions for growing Pinot Noir. The vines benefit from favorable exposure and a microclimate that contribute to the exceptional quality of the grapes.

Georges Lignier Bonnes-Mares wines are distinguished by their unique characteristics, reflecting both the appellation's exceptional terroir and the estate's expertise. Georges Lignier Bonnes-Mares wines are perfect examples of the excellence of the Côte de Nuits Grands Crus. They combine power, elegance and complexity, offering an unforgettable tasting experience. 

The wines are mainly made from the Pinot Noir grape variety, which gives them a ruby-red color tending towards garnet with age. The bouquet is elegant, with aromas of red and black fruits such as cherry, raspberry, blackberry and blackcurrant. Added to this are floral notes of violet and rose, as well as hints of undergrowth characteristic of great Burgundy wines. With age, tertiary aromas such as leather, tobacco and spices may also appear. Georges Lignier Bonnes Mares wines have excellent ageing potential. They can improve for several years.
