While distinct from the Vosne-Romanée branch of the Liger-Belair lineage, Thibault has built his domaine with a clear, independent identity, steadily expanding holdings through both inheritance and carefully selected parcels. Today the estate spans key sites across the Côte de Nuits and Beaujolais, reflecting his dual focus on Pinot Noir and Gamay, and his interest in expressing site across different terroirs. He farms organically, with biodynamic principles increasingly informing vineyard work, and places strong emphasis on vine health, soil vitality, and precise harvest timing. In the cellar, his approach is deliberate and restrained, often incorporating whole bunch fermentation, favouring gentle extraction, and adapting élevage to each cuvée to balance structure with clarity of fruit and terroir expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLes Fouchères is a village level parcel in Chambolle-Musigny situated on lighter, limestone dominant soils that favour finesse and aromatic lift over structure. Liger-Belair approaches the site with a light touch, using a proportion of whole bunch fermentation and careful extraction to preserve the inherent delicacy of the terroir. The wine shows bright red cherry and raspberry fruit, with floral notes of rose and violet, underscored by fine spice and a subtle mineral line. The tannins are supple and finely grained, leading to a poised, elegant finish that reflects the classic Chambolle profile of precision and silkiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin \u003cstrong\u003eFrance, Burgundy, Chambolle Musigny\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVintage\u003cstrong\u003e 2019\/2022\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlcohol \u003cstrong\u003e13.0%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStyle \u003cstrong\u003eElegant, perfumed, silky\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottle size \u003cstrong\u003e75cl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaking \u003cstrong\u003ePartial whole bunch fermentation, gentle extraction, élevage around 16 to 18 months in barrel with restrained new oak, preserving aromatic lift, finesse and fine tannin structure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes \u003cstrong\u003eOrganic, Low intervention\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair","offers":[{"title":"2019","offer_id":55515106541944,"sku":"CHAMBOL-19-THI-RED","price":151.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2022","offer_id":55515106574712,"sku":"CHAMBOL-22-THI-RED","price":144.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/6070\/8993\/files\/Chambole_Les_Fouchers_TLBA.png?v=1776429389","url":"https:\/\/sipwines.shop\/products\/chambolle-musigny-les-foucheres-domaine-thibault-liger-belair-2019","provider":"SipWines Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
