Producer

The Domaine Charles Lachaux vineyard stretches across carefully selected plots in Nuits-Saint-Georges. The vines, aged between 30 and 60 years, are rooted in clay-limestone soils, ideal for growing Pinot Noir. This terroir, rich in minerals, fosters the expression of typical Burgundian character. The temperate climate, characterized by warm summers and cool winters, allows for optimal grape ripening, thus guaranteeing a high-quality harvest. Environmentally friendly farming practices contribute to the health of the vines and the biodiversity of the vineyard, reinforcing the unique identity of each cuvée.

Owner and history

Today, the estate is managed by Charles Lachaux, a passionate winemaker who carries on the family legacy while bringing a contemporary touch to production. His vision is based on a respectful approach to the terroir and a desire to express the best of each vintage. Charles is fully involved in every stage of winemaking, from vine to bottle, thus guaranteeing the exceptional quality of his wines. His commitment to sustainability and innovation is reflected in his viticultural choices, making Domaine Charles Lachaux a leading name in Nuits-Saint-Georges.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Domaine Charles Lachaux is a meticulous process, blending tradition and modernity. The hand-harvested grapes are carefully sorted to retain only the finest bunches. After partial destemming, the berries are placed in vats for controlled fermentation. This stage is followed by aging in oak barrels, some of which are new, allowing for aromatic complexity without masking the fruit. Aging, lasting 12 to 18 months, is carried out with particular care, promoting the integration of the oak and the harmony of flavors. Each cuvée is then bottled unfiltered, thus preserving the purity and authenticity of the wine.
