Gevrey Chambertin Regnard 2020
Intro: The 2020 “Regnard” from Domaine Hubert Lignier a village-level cuvée from the appellation Gevrey‑Chambertin is sourced from purchased fruit (a lieu-dit called “Regnard” on the opposite side of the road from Chapelle-Chambertin) and is made in the same cellar as the domaine’s higher-level wines. It offers vibrant red and dark fruit, excellent minerality, and a structure that suggests good ageing potential. Despite being a village level cuvée, the Regnard comes from a well-exposed, south-facing parcel in Gevrey-Chambertin and is sourced specifically (though via négociant purchase) by Domaine Hubert Lignier meaning you get their winemaking style and pedigree at a more accessible level. The 2020 Domaine Hubert Lignier Gevrey-Chambertin “Regnard” is a fantastic village Pinot Noir: expressive, well-structured, refined and with excellent potential. It is approachable in the mid-term but also built to age and evolve. If you have a bottle, you’re looking at something with nuance and sophistication.
