Beautifully perfumed on the nose, violets, and roses to the fore. The palate is juicy and upbeat, with bright red berries and an inviting fleshy succulence. Definitely at the red-fruited end of the spectrum, which is good to see in a village-level Nuits-Saint-Georges.

Description
Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux, previously Domaine Robert Arnoux, was founded in 1858, making the current incumbent Charles Lachaux the sixth generation of this family-owned estate. The Domaine today revolves around Charles who took over in 2015. Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux has 14.5 hectares of vines, all planted to Pinot Noir, spread over six villages and 15 terroirs. These comprise four Grands crus, five premiers crus, five villages, like this Nuits-St-Georges (1.42Ha) as well as a regional level wine, the excellent ‘Pinot Fin.’ Beautifully perfumed on the nose, violets, and roses to the fore. The palate is juicy and upbeat, with bright red berries and an inviting fleshy succulence. Definitely at the red-fruited end of the spectrum, which is good to see in a village-level Nuits-Saint-Georges.Details
