While the Arlaud clan is most famously known for their 100% organic red Burgundy lineup, this delicious and very rare white Burgundy comes from an old family vineyard that sits more than 1,200 feet above sea level, practically the limit for the Hautes-Cotes. Such a perch means serious freshness and cut in Burgundian Chardonnay, with the added benefit of pure limestone soils—just like the Cote d’Or. Crushed stones, spring water and dried wildflowers mixes with fresh pears and quince on the expressive nose; the mouth is silky and bright, very fresh and pure, with plenty of energy and pep. Yet the juicy personality of 2009 come through with lots of yellow fruits and candied citrus on the mouth—very delectable and perfectly balanced. Very limited; less than six barrels made for the world.
A very special blanc from Domaine Arlaud
9.26.2011
We’ve done a lot of table-pounding over the incredible quality and value to be found in the Hautes-Cotes vineyards in Burgundy—but leave it to one of our favorite Cotes de Nuits producers blow our minds with this singular bottle. This pure and lively white Burgundy is a stunning wine, with so much personality and flavor that you just might mistake it for a village Meursault—and it’s the first ever white Burgundy we’ve imported from the very extraordinary Domaine Arlaud of Morey-St.-Denis.
