A Winemaking Revolution: Charles Lachaux's New Aesthetic

Domaine Arnoux Lachaux has soared in reputation in Burgundy in recent years, thanks to the winemaking revolution spearheaded by current owner Charles Lachaux. Breaking from traditional practices, the estate has shifted towards high-density planting and the Poussard Method (no-pruning technique), aiming to enhance the grapes' natural resistance and flavor concentration.

When crafting Echezeaux Grand Cru, Charles favors a high proportion of whole bunch fermentation, which imparts exceptional aromatic complexity to the red wine, including delicate notes of forest floor, dried rose petals, and refreshing spices. This style allows Arnoux Lachaux's Echezeaux to exhibit a rare ethereal quality and elegance within the appellation, all while maintaining a powerful structure.
