VOSNE-ROMANÉE 1ER CRU LES CHAUMES

Delicious with pork cassoulet with crusty bread.

This vine crosses the appellation from side to side, which allows to draw a maximum of elements for a greater complexity of the wine and a better homogeneity of the appellation. The soils are composed of limestones and clay marls. The average age of the vines present is around 35-40 years.

After three or four weeks of maceration, wines are aged in 30 to 100 percent renewed barrels, depending on the appellation and vintage.

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.
