Clos des Forêts Saint-Georges is a 7.2 ha monopole in a single block, the estate’s largest clos. It spans the whole slope: Ladoix limestone at the bottom, Premeaux limestone in the middle and white oolitic limestone at the top. In 2022, the grapes were hand-picked from 26 to 31 August, with a yield of 38 hl/ha. Winemaking is traditional, with gentle extraction. The wine ages for about 15 months in barrels, no more than 40% of them new, then 3 months in tank before bottling.
The nose is floral and fruity, deep and intense, with black cherry, crushed stone, a touch of faded rose and spices. The palate is straight and more muscular than the Clos de l’Arlot, concentrated yet elegant, with velvety tannins and fine minerality. The finish is long and intense. A few years in the cellar will bring more suppleness and grace.
