This stretch, between Nuits St Georges and Dijon, is home to the greatest Pinot Noirs in the world. The 2020s have a combined richness and freshness that set them apart, and promise excellent ageing potential.
This vineyard is in the hills above Vosne, and enjoys a cooler microclimate thanks to its 437m elevation. There is a tiny bit of Pinot Blanc grown amongst Chardonnay here. The wine has a gorgeous lemon verbena zingy freshness, citrusy and lightly grassy, with a chalky palate.
This is the first vintage for this new white cuvée in Sébastien Cathiard’s cellar. Chalky and refreshing.
This is one of few prestigious whites of the Côte de Nuits, and comes from one of the estate’s two monopole vineyards. Clos de l’Arlot is the steep, walled, amphitheatre vineyard just next to the cellars. The 2020 shows an intensity of fruit, wrapped around by some gorgeous toasty notes. It is rich, but with zingy freshness. I can’t think of a better Clos de l’Arlot Blanc from any previous vintage.
