Vines planted in 1936, 1942, 1964, 1972
Surface area: 1 ha in three climats: Chenevery (60%), Clos Solon (15%), Porroux (25%)
These three parcels from the north and south of the village, on the edge of the Premiers Crus, produce low yields (30 hl / ha on average) due to the age of the vines.
The wines are often well-coloured and meaty with good density. They can be enjoyed at their best after a few years’ in the cellar and can even develop well for more than 20 years.

"The 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis "Trilogie" comes from three lieux-dits: Chenevery (50%), Clos Salon (15%) and Les Porroux (35%). It has a crisp, quite airy, open bouquet with vibrant black cherry and briary aromas, fine definition with a touch of graphite in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit. The one-third whole bunches is nicely integrated and lending black pepper notes on the lively finish. Recommended." Vinous 90-92p
"Notes of plums, sweet berries, raw cocoa and cinnamon introduce the 2019 Morey-Saint-Denis Trilogie, a medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated wine that's deep and sapid, with the most structure and potential for aging of any of Lignier's communal bottlings this year. It's the usual trio of lieux-dits: Chenevery, Porroux and Clos Solon." Wine Advocate 90-92p
