Virgile Lignier worked at the domaine with his father Maurice from 1988, beginning to bottle some of the wine from 1992 (it had previously been sold to the négoce), taking over in 2000, which was the vintage when he first bottled all the domaine's production. In the vineyard Virgile made significant changes, stopping the use of herbicides, and beginning to plough instead. Green harvesting to limits yields followed, along with greater attention to grape selection. The domaine works organically except in extremis. The wines have a lovely combination of enough body and richness, combined with a lively clarity of expression. The old vines village cuvées are seriously good, and great value too. Going up the scale each site seems to speak very clearly of its source and there is a brightness and energy along with full, seamless fruit.\u003c!-- TABS --\u003e\u003c!-- \/TABS --\u003e","published_at":"2022-06-03T15:54:40-04:00","created_at":"2022-06-03T15:54:40-04:00","vendor":"Domaine Lignier-Michelot","type":"Red","tags":["Country_France","Finding_Inventory","memorial2023","PROMO","Region_Burgundy","Size_750 ml.","Subregion_ Clos de la Roche","Type_Red","Varietal_Pinot Noir","Vintage_1995","Volume_Discount","Winery_Domaine Lignier-Michelot"],"price":45000,"price_min":45000,"price_max":45000,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":40262980829220,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"A5187","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"Domaine Lignier-Michelot - 1995 - Clos de la Roche Grand Cru - 750 ml.","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":45000,"weight":2267,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":0,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"A5187","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/finding.wine\/cdn\/shop\/products\/7_ce7406b6-57e0-47a3-93f4-daf63bf6da78.png?v=1654288541"],"featured_image":"\/\/finding.wine\/cdn\/shop\/products\/7_ce7406b6-57e0-47a3-93f4-daf63bf6da78.png?v=1654288541","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":22378486366244,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2000,"width":2000,"src":"\/\/finding.wine\/cdn\/shop\/products\/7_ce7406b6-57e0-47a3-93f4-daf63bf6da78.png?v=1654288541"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/finding.wine\/cdn\/shop\/products\/7_ce7406b6-57e0-47a3-93f4-daf63bf6da78.png?v=1654288541","width":2000}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCountry: \u003cstrong\u003eFrance \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRegion: \u003cstrong\u003eBurgundy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSub Region: \u003cstrong\u003eClos de la Roche\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVarietal: \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Noir \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVintage: \u003cstrong\u003e1995\u003c\/strong\u003e - Size: \u003cstrong\u003e750 ml.\u003c\/strong\u003e - Type: \u003cstrong\u003eRed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA domaine of 11 hectares, 25% regionals, 50% Villages, 20% Premiers crus and 5% Grands Crus.
