L'Arlot Clos Des Forets Nuits St. Georges 2022

CRITICAL ACCLAIM:

"The very complex, dark and spicy nose leads into a very concentrated and compact palate with a wonderful velvety texture plus terrific tension. Red Burgundy rarely has this intensity of stony minerality (although it is often suggested that this is common). And this is only just beginning to reveal all its treasures. From a seven-hectare monopole site. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold." - 97 PTS, JAMES SUCKLING (07/2024)

"Slightly deeper in color compared to the Clos de l'Arlot, this has slightly more cohesion and complexity on the nose: dark cherries and crushed stone, a hint of wilted rose petals in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with beautifully integrated new oak, lending this a velvety veneer. It is a little plush yet with equivalent tension and a detailed, slightly piquant finish. This is an outstanding Nuits Saint-Georges from the Domaine." - 94-96 PTS, NEIL MARTIN, VINOUS MEDIA (01/2024)

“The scintillating fruit purity shines on the nose. Godot said it came naturally as the fruit was in terrific condition. Dried cranberries, lavender, dried flowers and a light earthiness wash across the palate. Lightly chalky tannins buffer the medium body before the zingy acidity pulls the flavors into a solid finish. This will easily age well for a decade or more.” - 94 PTS, TIM ATKIN (01/2024)
