Arnoux Lachaux Les Chaumes 2018 750mL (Slightly Soiled Label) US Pinot cassis fruit intertwined with scents

cassis fruit intertwined with scents of herbs

yet so manicured and refined with tannins that are polished and slightly dusty

blackcurrants and forest floor are all present in this deep

Arnoux Lachaux Les Chaumes 2018 750mL (Slightly Soiled Label) US Pinot cassis fruit intertwined with scents"The 2018 Vosne Romane 1er Cru Les Chaumes wafts from the glass with an inviting bouquet of peonies, sweet red berries, orange rind, raw cocoa and spices.
