阿洛酒庄 (Domaine de l'Arlot) (普雷莫-普里塞 (Premeaux-Prissey))
10% new oak.
Mid lemon. Apple, lemon, peach on the nose. Medium-bodied and moderately high fresh acidity. Zesty citrus fruit on a palate with a touch of vanilla and spice from the oak. A touch shortish. (MH)
No new oak.
Mid lemon. Lemon, apple and pear on the nose. Medium-bodied, modest punch and zest. (MH)
20% new oak. Cask sample.
Mid lemon. Apple, pear, lemon with some vanilla and spice. Nice texture. Medium-bodied and quite opulent. Moderate crisp acidity. Some saltiness on the palate. (MH)
Monopole. Organic, biodynamic.
Pure, scented limey citrus with a hint of sweet vanilla. Creamy texture with an attractive grip underneath. Deep and long with good presence and freshness. Really long. (JH)
From vines in Comblanchien.
Bright, mid-to-pale red or crimson. Clean, fresh, zesty acidity. Pretty nose of red cherries. Fruity, clean, crunchy and fresh. Without great pretension. Simple and tasty, young Pinot Noir. (MH)
Cask sample. Pale shaded garnet. Evolved nose. Very sweet and charming. Perhaps could do with a little more follow-through. (JR)
Cask sample. Mid to pale ruby. Sweet red-cherry nose. Mellow sweet fruit on the palate with soft texture. Summer spice on the mid palate. It doesn’t have enormous length, but it’s solid and elegant Pinot Noir now. Quite fine and delicate. (MH)
A devastating 90% loss of yield in 2024. Just 9 barrels harvested and raised as opposed to a more normal 100. Cask sample.
Dark to mid ruby. Pungent red cherry, raspberry and damson. Moderately high fresh acidity. Quite rich texture and a stark contrast with Les Suchots just tasted. This show is good. Nuits-St-Georges punch is powerful and well-structured. It’s a pity there’s so little. (MH)
Cask sample. Sweet start but just a little simple. But good energy. Mouth-filling. Lots going on there … (JR)
Cask sample. Mid to pale ruby. Subtle, refined, elegant aromatically. Red fruit and floral notes. Quite lofty, but with fine acidity and balanced powdery tannins. Very elegant, perhaps too much so for this premier cru. Fine and refined and perhaps an early bloomer. (MH)
25 ares and just two pièces. 50% new oak. Cask sample.
Mid ruby. Sweet cherry nose and refined floral aromas. The texture is rich, condensed and elegant, but is slightly overshadowed currently by the dominant new oak of the one new barrel. This is lovely in the immediate sweet fruit and grand cru density but needs an extra winter and racking before finding its true character. Elegant and sublime in the future. (MH)
