2024 Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Clos de l'Arlot Rouge, Domaine de l'Arlot

2024 Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Clos de l'Arlot Rouge, Domaine de l'Arlot

Cellar Circle Exclusive

This is the historic flagship monopole of the domaine, and lies just outside the cellar door. Its distinctive amphitheatre shape is planted with some very old vines, meaning production is low, even in more plentiful years. The wine is aromatically complex, with an intensity of red fruit that really draws you in. It is powerful but delicate at the same time, with a spiced, rose-petal character on the finish.

Tasting notes

The 2024 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos de l'Arlot 1er Cru was reduced to a paltry 3.5hl/ha in this vintage, although owning the entire vineyard resulted in a none too shabby nine barrels. It has a pretty nose with cranberry, wild strawberry and rose petal scents, demonstrating admirable presence despite the paltry yield. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, lightly spiced with commendable weight. It gently builds with just a faint touch of balsamic on the finish that imparts tension. Not much of it to go around but what does exist tastes great.
