2005 | Domaine de l'Arlot | Les Suchots

Full of coffee, wood, small black plums and chocolate, this is an exciting wine, with richness allied to round sweet fruits. The tannins are luxuriously enveloped in this velvet ripeness. A beautiful wine.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Just assembled and in consequence a bit disturbed by sulfur in its finish, the 2005 Vosne-Romanee Les Suchots offers smoky, gamey, floral and black-fruited aromas, a rich, darkly-hued palate of blackberry, beet root, bitter chocolate and licorice, and fine-grained but substantial tannic structure.

• Wine Enthusiast: Full of coffee, wood, small black plums and chocolate, this is an exciting wine, with richness allied to round sweet fruits. The tannins are luxuriously enveloped in this velvet ripeness. A beautiful wine.

Producer Information

Domaine de L'Arlot is one of the seminal properties in Nuits St. Georges. The domaine was co-owned by Jean-Pierre de Smet, who spent eight years alongside Jacques Seysses of Domaine Dujac before taking over L’Arlot in 1986. Today, the domaine consists of 14 hectares planted to mostly Pinot Noir, with 5% devoted to Chardonnay for their ultra-rare white wines. The oldest vines are 70+ years old, with the average age close to 50. While the estate’s core is in the monopoles of Clos des Forêts Saint Georges and Clos de l’Arlot, the domaine also consists of two parcels in the village of Vosne-Romanée that were added in 1991. In 2015 the very talented Geraldine Godot took over the domaine. With Geraldine’s inspired leadership, Domaine de l’Arlot is committed to maintaining their classic, elegant style of terroir driven wines in hopes of providing the sort of divine pleasure only classic Burgundy delivers.
