Thibault Liger-Belair Corton Grand Cru "Les Renardes" 2009 (RP:93)

Thibault Liger‑Belair 是 Domaine du Comte Liger‑Belair 莊主 Louis‑Michel 的堂親。家族淵源可追溯至 1720 年 Claude Marey 創立的酒商，後與 Liger‑Belair 家族結合。

2001 年 Thibault 接管家族在 Nuits‑Saint‑Georges 的舊產業，並擁有 Richebourg、Clos de Vougeot 與 Les Saint‑Georges 等知名葡萄園。酒莊已獲有機認證並採用生物動力法，以馬匹耕作，強調「傾聽葡萄藤」以展現風土。釀造上，他以浸泡（Infusion）代替過度萃取，新桶比例不超過 50%。酒風純淨與厚度兼備，同時展現礦物感與複雜層次。

Les Renardes 葡萄園位於 Corton 山坡中段，面向東南方，1956 年開始種植。因受石灰岩斷層影響，下層以白堊為主、上層偏黏土，構成獨特風土，被視為 Corton 最優質地塊之一。

2009 年份的 Corton‑Renardes 從頭到尾都展現出極佳的深度。櫻桃酒、糖果、野花與香料等香氣撲鼻而來。酒體濃郁誘人，充分呈現該年份華麗奔放的特質。風格成熟、奢華，但表現得恰到好處。適飲期：2014–2029。

Thibault Liger‑Belair, cousin of Louis‑Michel of Domaine du Comte Liger‑Belair, comes from a family whose roots trace back to Claude Marey’s négoce founded in 1720, later joined with the Liger‑Belair lineage.

In 2001, Thibault took over the family’s old property in Nuits‑Saint‑Georges, with holdings in Richebourg, Clos de Vougeot, and Les Saint‑Georges. The domaine is certified organic and biodynamic, with horses used for ploughing, and emphasizes “listening to the vines” to express terroir. Winemaking favors infusion over heavy extraction, with no more than 50% new oak. The wines combine purity and depth, showing mineral character and layered complexity.

Les Renardes, planted in 1956, lies mid‑slope on Corton’s southeast‑facing hill. A limestone fault creates chalky soils below and clay above, giving this climat its distinctive terroir and reputation as one of Corton’s finest sites.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 93 points)
The 2009 Corton-Renardes shows fabulous depth from start to finish. Kirsch, hard candy, wild flowers and spices are some of the many notes that jump from the glass. Rich and seductive, the Corton-Renardes presents a highly representative picture of the vintage in its flashiness. This is a decidedly ripe, opulent style, but it works. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2029.
