About This Vineyard
Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair was created in 2002 by young winemaker Thibault Liger-Belair, who after studying vinification at university, worked as director of an internet based wine distribution company before setting up this domaine with vineyards inherited from his parents. At the heart of this organic domaine is a very prominent vineyard ‘Les Saint Georges’ the most famous vineyard of the appellation.
Thibault’s large plot of this vineyard has vines that are over 60 years old. Thibault has implemented organic cultivation in all the vineyards he works and in recent years, he has started introducing biodynamic cultivation. Thibault’s winemaking style is very thorough, from fermentation timing, to low yields, restricted use of sulfur dioxide, limited use of new barrels and other methods that allow the flavours of the fabulous terroir he works come through.
