90-92 Vinous -
Read
(these vines average 40 years of age): Medium bright red. Sexy soil-driven aromas of raspberry, redcurrant, iron, leather, smoke and spices. A step up in creaminess of texture and mellow sweetness from the preceding examples. The tannins are substantial but ripe and late-arriving, allowing this wine to maintain its sweetness longer. Finishes with lingering spicy lift. Classic Morey-Saint-Denis from a ripe year.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
2016 Burgs need to be on every serious collectors short list. Especially ones with scores like these. This bottling got Tanzer pretty excited, and that is not easy to do!
About the Producer
Domaine Arlaud is a on a roll right now. With roots back to 1942 when Joseph Arlaud married Renee Amiot, whose family was deeply engrained in Burgundian wine culture, the family inherited some incredible holdings that they still farm biodynamically today. In 2013, third generation Cyprien Arlaud assumed control over management of the family estate. By then, it had grown to 15 hectares, consisting of 19 separate Appellation Controlled vineyard sites, with choice plots in 4 grand Crus: Clos de la Roche, Clos Saint Denis, Charmes Chambertin, and Bonnes Mares. These are simply some of the finest wines in Burgundy in our humble opinions.
