Domaine de l'Arlot
The historic Domaine de l’Arlot has gone from strength to strength under the ownership of Axa Millésimes, who bought the property in 1987. The steady guidance of Managing Director Christian Seely and the inspired appointment of Géraldine Godot as Technical Director in 2014 is paying dividends for the estate’s remarkable holdings. They have two monopole vineyards, and their premier cru Clos de l’Arlot’s Blanc is recognised as one of the most prestigious Chardonnays of the Côte de Nuits. The vineyards are managed thoughtfully, with biodynamic farming practiced since 2003. In the winery, Géraldine’s sensitive use of whole bunch fermentation for their Pinot Noir imparts finesse and delicacy and results in some of the most elegant Nuits-St-Georges, while her Vosne-Romanées are a testament to the domaine’s magnificent terroirs.
