Domaine Arnoux Lachaux
The name Arnoux has been a feature in Vosne Romanée since the mid-19th century. Since the early 1990s Robert Arnoux's son-in-law Pascal Lachaux has been running the estate and in 2009 Pascal and Florence have at long last made the subtle change in the naming of the Domaine. Pascal has indeed proved himself to be a hugely talented winemaker and his drive and ambition have ensured that the Domaine is now regarded amongst the top tier in Vosne-Romanée.
Description
"The 2016 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Corvées Pagets is also quite youthfully reticent at this stage, unwinding in the glass with a lovely bouquet of raspberries, dark chocolate, candied peel and rose petal. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with considerable amplitude and dimension, its fine but chewy structuring tannins largely concealed by a vibrant core of fruit." WA
Food Pairing
This 1er Cru pairs with French dishes like a rabbit or game, such as pheasant or venison.
