Goedhuis Waddesdon, December 2024
The dramatic topography of this walled, monopole vineyard is due partly to a natural fault line and partly to historic quarrying. The soils here are a mixture of marl, limestone and white oolite, giving an intricate, nuanced complexity to this Pinot Noir. The 2023 beguiles with a lifted, highly fragrant nose filled with cranberries, wild strawberries, pomegranates and a twist of dried wild herbs. Ethereal, pure red berry fruit flows effortlessly across the palate, supported by tannins that are gauzy, finely spun and impressively refined. Yet, beneath this graceful and understated façade there is the depth, complexity and power of a high-class red Burgundy.

Neal Martin, November 2024, Score: 92-94
The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos de l'Arlot 1er Cru has a vibrant bouquet that one might mistake for containing some stems—slightly darker fruit, with a touch of seaweed. The palate is medium-bodied with a saline entry, very well balanced and elegant in style, with a harmonious and persistent finish. Quite seductive. 2027-2043

Jancis Robinson, January 2025, Score: 17
Sour-fresh citrus aroma. Just lightly spiced from the oak. Lovely chewy freshness on the palate. Ripe citrus balanced by that touch of oak and the creamy, firm texture. (JH)

Jasper Morris MW, November 2024, Score: 91-94
A paler colour with an orange tint to the crimson, typical of this vineyard. A fine lively fruit, with blood orange in the background. This is a very classical reading of the terroir, with a long gracious finish and adequate structure. On the airy side for Nuits.

Region
Nuits Saint Georges
The second largest town after Beaune, Nuits St. Georges is known for ample wines that have textured tannins and rich fruit. Unlike other famous Côte de Nuits villages, it has no Grand Crus but does have a handful of exceptional premier cru vineyards such as Clos de l'Arlot, Les Pruliers and AuxMurgers. Its wines can be occasionally rustic, and this sets them apart from many of the more northern appellations as well as from the neighbouring Côte de Beaune whose wines (apart from Pommard) tend to be less structured and more fruit forward. This is no doubt due to a slightly increased presence of clay especially on the Primeaux-Prissey area of the appellation. Notable producers include Domaine de l'Arlot, Jean Grivot and Meo-Camuzet.
