Domaine de l'Arlot

  • About the Producer

    Domaine de l’Arlot has a rare thing: eleven hectares of monopole vineyards. These consist of two 1ers crus at the southern end of Nuits-Saint-Georges – the seven-hectare Clos-des-Forêts, and the four-hectare Clos de l’Arlot. Before the adventurous Jean-Pierre de Smet created the domaine – with financial support from AXA in 1987 – the wines were rustic. But with the help of the team from Domaine Dujac, where he learned to make wine, and assisted by his number two, Didier Fornerol, quality rapidly improved, and the domaine quickly became internationally recognised. Howard Ripley had the privilege of being their first ever customer and is the proud possessor of Facture No. 1.

     

    Along the way, the domaine acquired vineyards in Vosne: some 1er cru Les Suchots, and a tiny parcel of Romanée Saint-Vivant. The Clos de l’Arlot also produces rare – and delicious – white Côte de Nuits, one of whose distinguishing characteristics (something even rarer) is never suffering from premature oxidation. In 1999 Jean-Pierre was joined by Olivier Leriche, who took over completely in 2006 and left in 2011 to start his own domaine in the Ardèche. Géraldine Godot assumed control in 2014.

     

    The wines are not the sturdy, tannic Nuits of popular imagination. From the beginning, a high proportion of whole-bunch fermentation was used, the fruit and musts were handled with the utmost care. The result is delicate, perfumed wines that are approachable young but have great staying power.

     

  • About the latest vintage

    Géraldine reported an excellent year, but very little wine. A very cool period in April that wasn’t quite frost nonetheless damaged the buds  and concern yields were correspondingly lower. Poor flowering and the absence of water in the summer caused further losses, but a very welcome bout of rain in August refreshed the vines. Ripening was uneven, and choosing the right harvest date was crucial. Starting on 12th September, her team gathered a crop of small, perfectly healthy grapes with thick skins and little juice. Like many other growers, Géraldine was surprised by the fresh acidity in the wines and chose to temper their weight with a higher proportion of whole bunches than usual – a return to the old style – using up the 75% in the Suchots. She has produced a fantastic line-up.
