Nose is a little cotton candy on the nose. Palate is slightly ripe, showing a bit of oak here. Fresh but a pip of acidity would help. I like the wine, needs more time I suspect to settle down the ripeness and oak. Priceing a little crazy here at $250. I would drink this with a lot more time. But price is a bit crazy here. 91-92?

Enda en nydelig nese. Delikat og vegetal. Flott og tilbakeholden frukt med fine tanniner. Men dette er nok litt mer endimensjonalt enn Chaumes. Eller er det pent altså.

Really great tasting "Arnoux Lachaux 2018" with 3 friends. We are all ok to say that's the best 2018 that we taste this Year with Bruno Clair (Clos de Beze and Clos Saint-Jacques), Benjamin Leroux (the fabulous Clos saint Denis) and L'Arlot (RSV and Suchots "the best quality for price" of all). some great wine critics do not hesitate to compare it to the Leroy estate. We didn't believe it before tasting it. Yeahhhh!!!
Romanée Saint-Vivant 97-99
Vosne Les Reignots 98-100
Vosne les Suchots 96-98
Vosne Les Chaumes 95-97 (Top quality price)
Latricieres Chamb. 96-98
Clos Vougeot 93-95
NSG Corvées Paget 92-94
NSG Les Procès 93-95 (top quality price)
Chambolle M. 91-93
All we think that Charles Lachaux (and B. Leroux) will be the 2 or 3 best winemaker of tomorrow. Only one problem, we could only buy one bottle of the best four!!

Only 4.5 barrels produced from this 0.55ha parcel (14hl/ha). A sexy nose of green stems and refreshing mixed berries. Lifted nose with firm tannins and masculine structure. A big-boned Nuits Saint Georges. (88+/100)
