Tawny purple, opaque. With 3 hours of air the nose blossomed and exhibited the grace and power of a great Vosne. Notes of black cherries, Asian spice, some menthol, dark moist black soil, some sandalwood and a little rose petal. This powered up with air and showed its stuff over several hours of consumption. Great wine. — 6 years ago

A very good red wine. As stated elsewhere, a decent dinner wine that will go with most fall and winter dishes. Hits a bit hard off the bat, but opens up well with lots of flavor on the finish — 8 years ago
Yummy easy Malbec. Go to for every night. — 8 years ago
Fruit forward and lush, like other 02s I have had, but showed better than my first bottle. — 9 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
