Liger Belair Nuits St. Georges Aux Cras 2017 1.5L Sine Qua Non It has a brilliant bouquet"A restrained, cool and pure nose features notes of herbal tea, spice, earth, red currant and a whiff of the sauvage.

As such this delicious but tightly wound effort will also need at least some bottle age. In a word, excellent." Burghound, BH93, tasted 1 2020
