(from Les Gamaires, Les Fremières and Derrière le Four). A high-toned, airy and pretty nose is comprised by the essence of red cherry and spice trimmed in enough wood to notice. The succulent, round and equally generously proportioned flavors exude a subtle bead of minerality on the lightly austere, balanced and solidly long finale. This too needs better depth so a few years of keeping are advised. Drinking range: 2030 - Rating: 89-91 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2025)

The 2023 Chambolle-Musigny Vieille Vignes comes from three lieux-dits (it used to be five but they lost two parcels last year). Including 30% whole clusters, there is a sense of strictness on the nose as light sous-bois scents come through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely poised with pliant tannins, a keen thread of acidity and insistent grip toward the finish. Drink over the next decade. Drinking range: 2027 - 2037 Rating: 90-92 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Jan 2025)
Made from three plots this year, Derriere Le Four, Fremières, Gamets. A lighter garnet to ruby colour, yet with a beguiling violet laden Chambolle nose. Good tension thanks also to adequate acidity, far from a blockbuster, indeed a Chambolle on the lighter side with some elegance. Drinking range: 2028 - 2032 Rating: *** Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy (Nov 2024)
Thibault Liger-Belair Successeurs
The lack of the word 'domaine' in the name signals that this is a négociant wine from Thibault Liger-Belair. On the whole Thibault buys grapes having tended the vines with his own team, so that the wines are domaine wines in all but name.
