A noble vineyard in the heart of Gevrey, “Clos Village” sits just outside the estate, where both Philippe and Damien Livera can keep a watchful eye on their 60-year-old vines. It's really a baby Chambertin, with its gorgeous floral nose and saturated, royal purple core of ripe yet balanced fruit. Good spice and stony concentration on the nose; peppery and creamy black cherries on the mouth.

Livera Côtes de Nuits-Villages Reserve Vieilles Vignes 2009
France
/
Côte de Nuits-Burgundy
This exceptional plot of old vines (45 to 60 years old) called “Préau,” in Brochon, is for all purposes identical in exposition and soils as neighboring Gevrey village vineyards. This is a site that in the hands of the family Livera consistently outperforms most Gevrey village wines—if not premier cru bottlings. Not only is this a spectacular value for villages Burgundy, but also shows far above its station, and should age effortlessly for five to 10 years. A favorite.
