One of things I like most about Louis-Michel Liger-Belair's wines is the way they combine bright fruit with saline minerality and breadth; and they manage to accomplish this neat trick across a range of vintage conditions. Liger-Belair started harvesting in 2014 on September 15 with grape sugars in the 12. 3% to 12. 8% range, and the phenolics, he reported, were ripe."As of 2013 we're getting much better ripeness due to our farming practices," he told me, "due to our change in 2008 to organic farming." The estate had issues with the Drosophila suzukii only in its Clos du Château vineyard, added Liger-Belair. The '14s, he added have pHs between 3. 45 and 3. 5, but show "a good fresh expression of acidity. They will have aging potential based on their balance and ripeness." A number of these wines had been racked a few weeks prior to my November visit and were still a bit disturbed and missing some of their high notes.
