Domaine Arlaud Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, Cote de Nuits, France 2021 Kid Palate: Warm and accomplished due

Palate: Warm and accomplished due to a particularly generous vintage from every point of view

Wonderfully pure and intense nose of sweet blackcurrant and black cherry with notes of chalk and clay

and earth all literally soaring from the glass

The wine spends 5 months ageing in 60% French and 40% American oak barrels which imparts a subtle sweet spice aroma

Rich hints of smoked almond

Domaine Arlaud Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, Cote de Nuits, France 2021 Kid Palate: Warm and accomplished dueAnother charming, sensual wine from Arlaud, the 2021 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru delivers aromas of orange rind, rose petals, sweet spices and plums. Medium to full bodied, supple and fleshy, with melting tannins, bright acids and a saline finish, it's a pure, elegant rendition of this site. 94 Pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
