Product details
Clos de l’Arlot Blanc is one of the rare white expressions from Nuits-St-Georges, produced from the estate’s treasured monopole vineyard. With vines averaging over half a century in age and cultivated with great care on steep limestone soils, the result is a wine of remarkable character and purity. The 2022 vintage was matured for twelve months in French oak barrels—20% of which were new—followed by three months in vats before bottling, allowing the structure of the vineyard to shine through while gaining additional roundness and depth.
This cuvée is immediately recognizable by its brilliant golden clarity. The bouquet is as refined as perfume, revealing layers of white flowers, exotic fruits, honey, and vanilla, underpinned by mineral freshness. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance of suppleness and fullness, where creamy notes mingle with subtle oak tannins to create a sense of elegance and generosity. The finish concludes on a finely etched mineral note that sharpens its complexity and ensures both youthful charm and long-term finesse.
