"The 2006s will be good early and after 10 or 15 years," said Pascal Lachaux. "They have the acidity and ripe tannins to support aging." Lachaux described them as a 50/50 blend of the roundness of the 2000s and the structure of the 2002s. "And they're very typical of their sites." In his new winemaking facility Lachaux is able to make his wines without pumping them and can keep the fermentation temperatures from exceeding 30oC. He told me his wines routinely finish very dry, in the neighborhood of 0.5 grams per liter of residual sugar. Since 2003 he has only racked for the assemblage prior to bottling. Lachaux's superlative '05s were bottled last February.
