THE COMPANY
Founded in 1885 in Morey St-Denis, in the heart of Burgundy, Domaine Hubert Lignier is one of the leading producers in the small village of CĂ´te de Nuits, with wines that fully respect the tradition of the wine region that is now most loved by Pinot Noir enthusiasts. In 1991 Romain joined his father Hubert in the company, without wanting to change the style of the domaine in any way except to refine some small details. Unfortunately, his untimely death in 2004 left the domaine in a difficult situation for some time, with Hubert who had to take over the management supported by his oldest son Laurent who soon took control of the winery. The vineyards are located in the villages of Morey-St-Denis, Chambolle-Musigny and Gevrey-Chambertin and in addition to the grapes from these vineyards are vinified grapes coming from the property of the widow of Romain, which is why some wines are “negoçe”. An impressive talent for winemaking and a style without excess have made Hubert Lignier one of Burgundy’s leading figures: his wines perfectly represent the elegance of Pinot Noir.
