Based in Vosne-Romanée, Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux is known producing for some of the finest expressions of Pinot Noir. Currently run by Charles Lachaux, the domaine has currently 14.5 hectares of vines in four grand cru, five premier cru and five village appellations. Both organic and biodynamic principles are applied to their viticulture, although it’s not officially certified. This release is the domaine’s 2014 ‘Les Suchots’, a prestigious premier cru in Vosne-Romanée. It’s a full-bodied expression, lifted by notes of red berries, fresh flowers and hints of minerality.
Vinous
(100% vendange entier; 80% new oak; from a healthy crop of 42 hectoliters per hectare):Bright red-ruby. A touch of reduction mostly dissipated to reveal classic Suchots scents of black raspberry, Oriental spices, flowers and fresh herbs, plus an intriguing note of paprika. Wonderfully silky, plush, generous wine with sneaky inner-mouth energy. The wine's sweet oak component will need a few years to harmonize with its fruits and flowers. Finishes with terrific length and substantial ripe tannins. This should ultimately make a wonderfully complete Burgundy.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2016
