Bought with dinner at Elkridge Furnace Inn 2/25 $50. Full body, firm tannins, spicy. — 7 months 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. — 4 years ago
Blend of Grenache (65%), Syrah (15%), Mourvèdre (15%) and Cinsault (10%). Dark ruby color. Aromas of black cherry, spices, violets and just a bit of leather. Black cherry and blueberry fruit lead the palate with touches of those sweet spices, roasted meat and minerals. Slight saline note on the long and lingering finish. Full bodied well structured and powerful. Excellent balance and complexity. Thanks for opening this one, Keith S! — a month ago

John has this right: old school. It’s rich and has plenty of unripe strawberry and garrigue and tart cherries going on. Love it. Not too complex but great value. 2023

Vivid and full of flavor. Bright and gamey with floral notes, dark cherry and violets. Sappy with a hint of iodine. Delicious — 9 days ago
