93-94 points Funky in a good way. Complex. The only Aligote to impress me (so far), but not worth the price tag in my humble opinion 🤷🏽‍♂️

Boasts piercingly high acidity, with nuances of browned apples and oxidized fruit, nutty rice crust. There's a distinct yeasty aroma, clearly

Lachaux Aligoté. Young. Very impressive. So delicate, so balanced. When it opens up it reveals delicious and pure fruit, with not yet ripe peach

Beautiful, soft and light - pear, white peach, mineral flint, slight citrus blossom and the softest oak. Acid is so well integrated and balanced.

Vintage 2019 tasted May 2024. High expectations here, considering the stratospheric hype. Low So2, only at bottling, shows on the gently "natural"-reductive

Wouldn’t go for Aligoté in blind guess. Beautiful bouquet of pear, citrus, nectarines, lychee, and pronounced white flowers. Concentrated

I thought it can't get better than PYCM when it comes to Aligoté, but this Lachaux is possibly another step up & redefines what is possible

Very very good. Aligote is hard to do really well in my limited experience, sometimes too herby and too much fennel. Charles Lachaux however

Pale lemon-green. Lemon, quince and apple blossom on the nose with a beeswax undertone. Dry, high acidity, light-to-medium body with modest intensity.
