Wine Advocate, 88-90 Points 

"The badger that has frequently ravaged this small parcel was deterred this year by means of a sound cannon, yet he nonetheless produced a small crop of the 2022 Pommard En Brescul, a taut, tightly wound young wine redolent of plums, dark berries and spices. It will reward a bit of patience." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Although the Lignier domaine is historically associated with the Côte de Nuits, their firmly classical house style melds beautifully with the mineral rigor of Pommard. Hubert and Laurent ventured into this zone during the period of uncertainly following Romain’s death, and this “En Brescul” comes from a 0.4-hectare parcel of 20-year-old vines on which the family has a 25-year lease. Raised in 25% new wood, this amply concentrated wine displays dark red fruits around its core of stones."
