Lignier/Hubert Gevrey-Chambertin Regnard 2020

93 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "A lovely wine, with a high-toned strawberry and pomegranate fruit, alongside a distinct mineral note. This is closer in style to Gevrey than to Morey and is made from purchased fruit from this village lieu-dit that lies on the opposite side of the Nationale from Chapelle-Chambertin. The fermentation is done with 30% whole clusters and is aged in 20% new casks. Drinking Window: 2025-2040. (Oct 2021)"

89-91 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Regnard (négoce) bursts with aromas of plums, peonies, warm spices and soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, it's charming and vibrant, with powdery tannins and a long, sapid finish. (1/20/22)"

89-91 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "A grape purchase which they pick themselves. Red purple, quite discreet, relatively savoury from the location but with a bit more fruit sweetness from the vintage. Together these aspects make an agreeable Gevrey. 13.20% alcohol. (Nov 2021)"

89-92 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(note that Lignier uses the spelling of Regnard rather than the more common Reniard). The perfumed essence of red pinot fruit and earth wisps is trimmed in a hint of the sauvage. The delicious, vibrant and equally well-detailed middle weight flavors flash a touch of youthful austerity on the lingering finish that is, in the context of what is typical for the vineyard, relatively refined. Worth considering. Drink: 2027+. (Jan 2022)"
