Description of the Domaine de l'Arlot

Romanée-Saint-Vivant is one of the most prestigious grands crus of Vosne-Romanée. The estate’s plot, about 0.25 ha of old vines on clay and limestone, is separated from Romanée-Conti only by a lane. The estate has made it since 1991, its first vintage. 2022 is a sunny, generous vintage: after a mild, dry winter, a warm spring and well-timed rain brought good ripeness while keeping surprising acidity. The grapes were hand-picked from 26 to 31 August. The wine is fermented in wooden vats, then aged for about 15 months in barrels, no more than 40% of them new.
The nose, discreet at first, opens with air to ripe red fruit, violet, summer flowers, blood orange and spices. The palate is broad and velvety, denser than the Suchots, with deep fruit, fine coating tannins and a firm structure. The finish is very long. A great wine, still young and closed, that calls for patience.
Domaine Méo-Camuzet
Corton Perrières
Domaine Comtes Lafon
Santenots Du Milieu
A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful
Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
Clos St Jacques
Domaine Anne Gros
Echezeaux
The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a clean and very precise bouquet: nicely focused with palpable mineralité even at this early juncture
Domaine de l'Arlot
Romanée St Vivant
The colour is a bright ruby. The nose, which needs a little air, combines redcurrant, blueberry, crunchy red fruit, toasty notes and mineral touches. The palate is complex and lively, medium-bodied
Domaine Comte De Vogüe
Chambolle Musigny
The nose opens on sour cherry, dark raspberry, bilberry and forest berries, with violet and a touch of spice. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated and full of energy
Domaine Comte De Vogüe
Chambolle 1er Cru
The lively, perfumed nose combines forest berries, red cherry, dried flowers, earth and a touch of smoke. The palate is deep and complex, very pure and never heavy
Pierre Vincent Girardin
Vosne-Romanée
Domaine de l'Arlot
Clos Des Fôrets
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
Claire Naudin
Côtes De Beaune
Domaine de l'Arlot
Vosne Romanee
The nose combines red fruit (raspberry, morello cherry), blackcurrant, rose petal and a touch of spice. The palate is medium-bodied, voluptuous and fresh
Hubert Lamy
D Chez Edouard
The 2022 shows a gently reductive nose of pear, white flowers, hazelnut and wet stones, with a hint of orange blossom
