Explosive nose full of CLB spice and piercing red fruit and violets. Hardly any reduction here on the pnp. It continued to gain weight and complexity over time. Complexity as well as intensity both on the nose and the palate that is just simply not associated with village wine. It’s so pure, balanced and transparent, and continued to blossom and expand over the course of dinner. Tannins are smooth and fine grained and the finish is very persistent.

CLB La Colombière 2017 was explosive and with soaring aromatics and continued to blossom beautifully. CLB’s 2017’s are my favorites right now along with Mugneret Gibourg.

Elegant and aromatic with a mesmerizing bouquet and terrific complexity, classic Vosne spice, black raspberries and cherries, hints of smoke and plum, long, sexy and seductive finish. Damn I love CLB ❤️

Delicious wine, cherries, red berries, at the end a more heavy body, should evolve nicely in the next 5 to 7 years

New oak still dominant on the nose, but everything in place for a big reward ahead.

Still part of squid's cellar...this Comte Liger Belair La Colombiere 2006 is just pure cherry juice, silky, long finish, no need for food
