About the Wine:
This wine is recognizable by its golden, brilliant and clear colour. The pleasure starts with the very fine nose which evokes white flowers and exotic fruit, honey and vanilla. It carries on in the mouth where one discovers a full, generous wine whose roundness, suppleness and freshness express the very notion of harmony. It concludes on a mineral note which sharpens its complexity.
Tasting Note:
Pale yellow color. A bouquet of great finesse with subtle apricot and white peach scents.
The wine reveals its complexity on the palate: expressive, fleshy, delicate, fine and tannic. The finish lingers on nicely. This is a rich, smooth wine.

89-91 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos de l'Arlot Blanc offers up notes of crisp yellow apples, marzipan and pastry cream, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively palate that's deeper, more layered and more incisive than its communal junior sibling. This hails from a parcel planted with selection massale Chardonnay in the heart of the Clos, whereas La Gerbotte is planted with clones." - William Kelley (9th Jan 2020)
