Clos de l’Arlot is the estate’s historic clos, walled since the end of the 18th century around the house. This monopole lies in the hollow of an old quarry that forms a natural amphitheatre, on marl and limestone. The red premier cru comes from the oldest vines, planted in 1956 and 1984; the young vines at the top of the clos make the Mont des Oiseaux cuvée. In 2022, the grapes were hand-picked at the end of August. After a cold soak and native-yeast fermentation, the wine ages for about 16 to 17 months in barrels, 40% of them new.
The nose is pure and delicate, with strawberry, raspberry and bramble, and earthy touches that emerge with air. The medium-bodied palate shows black plum, a hint of spice and liquorice, good tension and fine tannins. It is a wine of elegance rather than power, paler and more aromatic than the Clos des Forêts. Give it three to five years; it will gain complexity over 10 to 15 years.
