About Georges Lignier & Fils
The domaine is led by Benoit Stehly, nephew of Georges Lignier, who worked at the domaine for a decade alongside his uncle, before assuming control of the work in both the vineyard and the cellar in 2008.
This is a traditional blend of 2/3 Pinot Noir and 1/3 Gamay, with the two cépages harvested and vinified separately before assemblage. Elevage takes place entirely in steel tank, and the fruit is sourced from three parcels in Morey-Saint-Denis. It is light, fresh, and easy to drink, as is to be expected from a pleasant Passetoutgrains.
