What is this wine?
Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux, based in Vosne-Romanée and now led by Charles Lachaux, has become one of Burgundy’s most sought-after domaines, thanks to meticulous biodynamic farming, extensive whole-cluster fermentations, and a style that emphasizes perfume and finesse. Aux Reignots is a steep, limestone-rich premier cru that sits just above Romanée-Conti, considered one of the village’s greatest vineyards. The 2016 vintage was marked by severe frost and low yields, producing wines of great concentration, balance, and age-worthiness.

Why get this wine?
Arnoux-Lachaux’s wines have entered cult status, with allocations nearly impossible to secure. Aux Reignots is among the domaine’s crown jewels—a premier cru often spoken of as “grand cru in all but name.” The 2016 vintage, with its rare combination of power, perfume, and scarcity due to frost, makes this an extraordinary collector’s bottle.

What does this wine taste like?
Vivid red cherry, raspberry, and plum with rose petal, exotic spice, and herbal lift from whole clusters. Silky yet structured, with fine-grained tannins, lively acidity, and a long, perfumed finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Best 2026–2045. Decant young bottles gently. A natural pairing with refined dishes like duck, pigeon, or truffle risotto.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2016 Vosne-Romanée Aux Reignots 1er Cru comes from a tiny 0.2-ha parcel. It has a vivacious and perfumed bouquet, damp earth and black stewed tea developing with time. The palate is resplendent with raspberry and cranberry fruit, refined with edgy tannin and an exceedingly sustained finish that lasts for more than 60 seconds. The nobility of this Premier Cru, just above La Romanée, really shines through." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 94
"Strikingly expressive and fragrant aromas of violets, rose petals, spices and red cherries introduce the 2016 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Reignots, a medium to full-bodied, supple and satiny wine, its melting tannins entirely concealed in a succulent core of fruit, concluding with a long, saline finish. It's one of the more open, immediate premiers crus in the cellar. Lachaux observes that he wants people who open his bottles to be driven to drink them by “the desire to discover in the mouth what you have on the nose,” and with this wine, he has very much succeeded." -William Kelley
