🏰 The 2023 Arlot Nuits St Georges Clos de l'Arlot Blanc is an insanely well-structured white Burgundy, hailed as one of the few prestigious whites of the Cote de Nuits and easily one of the best white wines you'll find in the region. This 1er Cru, from a steep, hand-worked vineyard with 50+ year old Chardonnay vines, offers 【complex mineral and flint aromas supported by layers of white flowers, lemon pith, orange blossoms, and profound chalkiness】. The palate is medium-bodied with energetic acidity and a vivid mouthfeel, leading to a steely, granitic aftertaste and a crisp, savory, saline finish.
🍴 This elegant and complex white wine is perfect for pairing with sophisticated dishes. Consider pan-seared scallops, roasted chicken with creamy sauces, rich seafood pasta, or fine aged goat cheese. Its saline finish also makes it a great match for oysters or other shellfish.
🥂 An excellent choice for a celebratory meal, a special occasion, or a serious tasting of fine white Burgundy. Its vibrant acidity and structure suggest it will age beautifully, with a recommended drinking window from 2027-2030.
BACKGROUND
Domaine de l'Arlot is a Burgundy producer based in the Côte de Nuits, famous for its Pinot Noir from select vineyard appellations. It has vines in several prestigious vineyards, including two top monopole vineyards - Clos de Forets Saint-Georges and Clos de l'Arlot. The l'Arlot vineyard was founded in the 18th century when the owners of the estate built walls. Domaine de l'Arlot was expanded in 1891 after being acquired by wine merchant Jules Belin. Pinot Noir is the dominant variety in most of the estate's vineyards, with a small amount of Chardonnay also produced, including a rare variety from Clos de l'Arlot.
