Tasting Notes
-
Goedhuis, 2005
Noticeably savoury, this chewy wine has exotic flavours of soy and roasted meat surrounded by a core of wild red and black berry fruits. With a strong sense of minerality, crisp acidity and plump fleshiness, it is wonderfully balanced and enticing.
-
Burghound, January 2007,
Score: 89The very fresh high-toned red berry fruit nose also displays more than a hint of floral and herbal nuances with wonderfully complex, intense and very pure flavors that possess excellent balance. The finish is long, understated and precise with ample punch and a hint of animale. Drink: 2010+.Notes: from vines planted in the early 1950s.

Burghound, January 2006,
Score: 88-91This high-toned red berry fruit nose also displays more than a hint of floral touches with wonderfully complex, intense and very pure flavors that curiously for the vintage also evidence a hint of mocha and anise on the slightly warm finish. The finish is long, understated and precise with ample punch. Drink: 2009+.Notes: from vines planted in the early 1950s.

Producer
Domaine de l'Arlot

Domaine de l'Arlot was created in 1987 when AXA Millésimes purchased the property in Prémeaux, just south of Nuits St Georges. Its history as a domaine, however, stretches back far into the Burgundian annals passing through the Vienot and Belin dynasties before AXA’s acquisition. The domaine’s recent history has been shaped by the influence of Jean-Pierre de Smet who ran the domaine for almost two decades before Christian Seely took over direction. In 2014 Christian installed Géraldine Godot as technical manager and winemaker. A native Burgundian, she is a qualified microbiologist and oenologist, and looks set for a bright future at this Côte de Nuits estate. The domaine favours whole bunch fermentation, seeking to produce wines with refinement and finesse. (Not to be confused with Domaine Arlaud in Morey St Denis.)
Region
Nuits-Saint-Georges
The second largest town after Beaune, Nuits St. Georges is known for ample wines that have textured tannins and rich fruit. Unlike other famous Côte de Nuits villages, it has no Grand Crus but does have a handful of exceptional premier cru vineyards such as Clos de l'Arlot, Les Pruliers and AuxMurgers. Its wines can be occasionally rustic, and this sets them apart from many of the more northern appellations as well as from the neighbouring Côte de Beaune whose wines (apart from Pommard) tend to be less structured and more fruit forward. This is no doubt due to a slightly increased presence of clay especially on the Primeaux-Prissey area of the appellation. Notable producers include Domaine de l'Arlot, Jean Grivot and Meo-Camuzet.
