Lot presentation
Morey Saint-Denis Arlaud 2018
The wine
Morey-Saint-Denis Village is produced on a one hectare parcel from vines that are more than 35 years old. It is élevaged in oak for between 14 and 18 months (25% new). It has an elegant nose with aromas of red fruit (raspberry) and peppery notes. It is well balanced on the palate with a pleasant taut quality and well blended tannins. At the table, this wine pairs very well with red meat and game.
About the Producer Arlaud
The origins of Domaine Arlaud date back to World War II when Joseph Arlaud, from the Ardėche, met and married a lady from Bourgogne, Renée Amiot, whose family owned a vineyard. The couple developed and expanded the domaine. In 1982, their son, Hervé Arlaud took over and enlarged the domaine further, while developing bottle sales. Today, the third generation (Bertille, Cyprien and Romain) manage the operation and do very high quality work. The 15 hectare vineyard is certified organic and biodynamic and includes the very fine terroirs of Bonnes-Mares, Charmes-Chambertin and also Clos de la Roche. The vines and soil are well worked (ploughed by horses) and the élevage is increasingly controlled, producing magnificent, very pure wine with remarkable finesse. This area is widely acclaimed by critics and loved by fans
