2019 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots, Domaine de l'Arlot

2019 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots, Domaine de l'Arlot

The domaine purchased this plot of Vosne premier cru in the 1990s, and since then has been making this superb cuvée. The nose of the 2019 announces a magnificent 2019: red berries, gentle toasti spice, it is the quintessential Pinot Noir. The palate has a remarkable smoothness, with creamy, dense but agile tannins, and a sweet fruit core on the back palate make the finish seemingly endless. Outstanding.

Tasting notes

The 2019 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru includes 75% whole bunch and 40% new oak. It has a clean, precise bouquet of pure dark red cherries, wild strawberry, blood orange and veins of blue fruit. The palate is well balanced with fine structure, a less rounded and opulent Les Suchots due to the whole-bunch content. A dash of black pepper and clove lends complexity on the finish. I admire the "coolness" of this Les Suchots. An intellectual Pinot Noir.
