Grapes: 100% Pinot Noir

Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux, under the visionary leadership of Charles Lachaux, has rapidly ascended to the very top echelon of Burgundy producers. Building on a rich family heritage in Vosne-Romanée dating back to 1858, Charles has embarked on a "quiet revolution" in the vineyards and cellar. His philosophy is radical yet deeply rooted in respect for nature: to step back and allow the vineyard and vintage to speak with unparalleled clarity and precision. This involves meticulous regenerative farming, incredibly low yields, and a pioneering approach to élevage, including a shift to ceramic vessels for aging to preserve purity. The wines of Arnoux-Lachaux are now among the most sought-after globally, celebrated for their vibrant life and profound sense of place.

"Les Hautes Maizières" is a village-level vineyard in Vosne-Romanée that consistently over-delivers, often performing at the quality of a Premier Cru. Situated just below the southern wall of the Grand Cru Clos de Vougeot and adjacent to the prestigious Premier Cru Suchots, this small parcel benefits from iron-rich clay-limestone soils. The vines, many planted in the 1950s, contribute to the wine's depth and structure.
