The Arnoux-Lachaux Clos de Vougeot is from the climate Quartier de Marei Haut in the top of the vineyard. Like many other Clos de Vougeots of the 2015 vintage offering a surprising freshness and good acidity. The bouquet offer fine detailed fruit – oak well integrated – with a nice deep earthy minerality – quite vibrant and floral for a Clos de Vougeot. On the palate very balanced and focused offering a fine verve and freshness. A fine year for Clos de Vougeot … and this is a lovely and focused effort build for pleasure.
