    Situated opposite the Clos de L’Arlot, this is a northerly exposed vineyard producing a bright and racy white wine with scents of fresh lime, grapefruit and lemon sherbet. Bottled just after the harvest following 10 months barrel aging, which gives a veneer of walnut and almond on the finish.

    Returning after being frosted in 2021, the 2022 Côte de Nuits Blanc Villages Au Leurey, which had already been bottled, has a tightly wound bouquet with Conference pear, red apples and light frangipane scents loitering in the wings. Fine delineation, though not powerful. The palate is well-balanced with a taut line of acidity. There’s more tension than the Le Mont Blanc, with a twist of bitter lemon enlivening the finish. Give this a year in bottle if you can. A fine comeback. Drinking Window: 2024-2030.

    Frosted out in 2021, welcome back. A little white fruit, nicely strict but with good intensity. Fine length, and the fruit is well supported by a little barrel. No new wood. Drink from 2025-2027.

    These vines are in the small commune of Comblanchien, lying between Nuits St Georges and Ladoix-Serrigny, but this wine has the presence of a Nuits St Georges. A plush and joyous wine, with flavours of sweet, juicy raspberry, it is a symphony of Pinot charm. Soft tannins and very rounded on the finish. Lovely.

  • Neal Martin, January 2024, Score: 87

    The 2022 Côte de Nuits Village Clos du Chapeau is the one cuvée that I felt flirted with a little sur-maturité on the nose: touches of hickory and dates filtering through the red plummy fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a powerful entry, a little more savory in style compared to its peers. Touches of black truffle and cracked black pepper show up towards the finish, showing some sinew. Afford this a couple of years in bottle. Maybe just missing the grace of their cuvées emanating from the Hautes-Côtes. Drinking Window: 2024-2032.

  • Jasper Morris MW, October 2023, Score: 89

    In bottle. Mid crimson colour. The bouquet shows a little more fruit ripeness than Le Mont. Not so much detail. Quite firm on the palate, with a more rigid structure, a fair volume of fruit, but on the discreet side today. Drink from 2025-2028.

    Formerly known as Petit Arlot, these vines are now over 25 years old and the domaine has created a new label reflecting its Premier Cru status: Mont des Oiseaux, named after the old track which overlooks the quarry of the Clos. Sitting at the top of the Arlot Clos on limestone soil, this is a different style to the marl-based Clos wine. Bright and lively red fruit fragrance, this focuses on clarity and purity, with a crystalline fruit sweetness, a harmonious tannic core and subtle and appealing length on the finish.

  • Neal Martin, January 2024, Score: 91-93

    The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Mont des Oiseaux 1er Cru was raised in 35% new oak and taken from barrel. The nose demonstrated a slight reduction, though attractive cranberry and wild strawberry fruit are already in place. The medium-bodied palate offers dark berry fruit laced with blood orange and a touch of clove. Quite citrus-fresh towards the well-structured finish. There is ample depth here, and the oak allows the terroir to shine. Very fine. Drinking Window: 2026-2038.

  • Jasper Morris MW, October 2023, Score: 90-92

    Top part of the Clos de l’Arlot on white limestone, younger clonal vines. A pretty mid purple, what seems to be an iron rich note on the nose, though it is not that. A stony touch too. This is elegant, medium bodied, indeed seems light at first until there is a burst of fruit towards the back. Good crisp acidity to finish along with an attractive red fruit perfume. Drink from 2028-2034.
