Saturday, September 25, 2021 - Getting underrated here, but probably because it will be long lived and is just starting to show it's stuff. A lot of complexity, focused on dark black fruit with stems and herbs. Aristocratic and intense. The palate has a lot of structure and density but is very smooth. Tasted in a a single blind flight of Arnoux Lachaux including his Vosne Village, Haut Maizières, Chaumes, and Suchots, this was the winner by a smidgeon over the Suchots. With the other 4 all being Vosne wines, this stood out a bit as darker, broodier, and more dense. I thought it was the Suchots though because of that darkness, but this showed even deeper and darker than that wine. Showed the most oak too, which perhaps should have tipped me off as being the Grand Cru of the pack.
