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
A spicy but restrained nose speaks of exotic tea, lilac, black raspberry and a hint of wood. There is a seductive texture to the supple medium-bodied flavors that possess fine mid-palate density before culminating in a dusty and palate coating finish.
Food Pairing
Delicious with pork cassoulet with crusty bread.
