Reviews

“Outstanding. Top Value. A more elegant nose is comprised by notes of the fresh and airy essence of red and dark cherry, violet and soft spice wisps. Here too there is very good vibrancy to the lilting and well-detailed medium weight flavors that flash evident salinity on the focused, balanced and sneaky long finale. A quality Chambolle villages.” 89-91 points
Allen Meadows, Burghound
“The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a very harmonious, slightly earthy bouquet, the 100% whole bunch lending a very discreet tertiary/sous-bois quality. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit (cranberry, strawberry and pomegranate). This has quite strict tannins and a Morey-inspired, sapid finish. Good potential.” 90-92 points
Neal Martin, Vinous
“Soaring from the glass with scents of raspberries, plums and cherries, mingled with inviting nuances of peonies and dark chocolate, Lachaux's 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Village is medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with lively acids and exquisitely refined tannins that frame a deep and sapid core of fruit.”
