Rich and bold. Out of place terroir wise. A PN that can be liked to many who dislike this variety. Still young, needs a few years in bottle or a good decanting. — 2 years ago

My Arnoux-Lachaux day. Had the 2017 Romanee St. Vivant at lunch. A 2018 Clos de Vougeot at 6 pm and this NSG at 10 pm. It holds its own with those two grand crus. All of these wines are full bodied but they display an incredible elegance. Red fruit and great salinity with a touch of acid to create great balance. For me Charles Lachaux has reached superstar status in 2018 with unfortunately prices to match. That is what makes this wine so great, it is still relatively affordable and scores almost as good as the two grand crus tasted earlier. — 5 years ago

Haven’t had it since tasting 2013 years ago. Very nice basic Burg holding up well, not that complex but very nice to drink with meal. Couple more found. — 8 months ago

From a presumed late Domaine release, perfect looking bottle with high fill that threw off a lot of sediment. Tawny amber color, translucent and light in the glass. Light cherry, dry brush and rhubarb notes. A nice subtle richness in the mouth. Fruit is somewhat gone but still enough to match the rounded tannins and structure. Again, with air this blossomed and was a great experience for everyone. Another bottle from the Don Stott cellar. — 9 years ago

By now everyone knows the name of Charles Lachaux, quickly becoming a Burgundy legend, and while 2017 is the vintage where Charles’ stylistic changes are known to take full effect, by 2013 such changes had already begun once he took the reigns the prior year—more judicial use of new oak, increasing amounts of whole clusters each subsequent vintage, higher and denser canopies, just to mention a few. His 2019 vintage is what did it for me. Simply incredible wines.

But at age 12, 2013 Chaumes, 50% whole cluster and 50% new oak is showing beautifully after some required air, with a seductively elegant perfume, terrific fruit density and concentration for the vintage, and a long mineral, spice and saline inflicted finale. Pre-2017, I think the Vosne bottlings are the best, but I think they need at least 10 years to absorb the oak. But now, everything’s great, even on release! — 6 months ago

Medium rubi robe, nose of cherries infusion, berries, crushed roses, violets and a hint of spices. Medium bodied, deceivingly light, gaining a lot with aeration and developing nicely. Really great stuff: we love it. — 9 months ago

I usually am not such a great fan of MSG. I find the wines too harsh, too masculine. This is a great MSG, lighter, feminine, full of sumptuous red fruit, precise and delineated closer to a Vosne than a MSG with great balance. Enjoyable (a bit too much) but another 10 years in it. Above all still affordable which can’t be said of the other wines of this emerging (for me he has emerged) super star. Got enough of it to carry me for 10 years but afraid it is too good to forego. — 5 years ago
