Goedhuis, December 2023
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.

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.

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
Côte de Nuits Villages
This communal appellation covers the vineyards of Fixin, Brochon, Premeaux, Comblanchien, and Corgoloin. Spread along the length of the Cotes de Nuits the wines of the different communes are, unsurprisingly, varied, reflecting a range of different exposures and nuances of soild type. The vast majority of production is red, with just a smattering of Chardonnay grown. The reds can offer very good value from the better producers.
