This is a white premier cru from a part of Burgundy known for red, and in 2024 there was very little of it: the vines gave just 13 hectolitres per hectare. Only 5% of Domaine de l'Arlot's 14 hectares is Chardonnay, so the house's whites are scarce in any year. This one comes from the Clos de l'Arlot, a walled monopole in Prémeaux, just south of Nuits-Saint-Georges. The Clos sits in an amphitheatre left by an old quarry and takes its name from a spring that rises at the bottom of the plot. The white section is rugged, rocky ground on slopes so steep that all the vineyard work has to be done by hand. 2024 kept growers on edge, with a cool, damp flowering that cost clusters, before a warm August and a harvest in fine weather from 18 to 21 September. Géraldine Godot pressed whole bunches, fermented with native yeasts and gave the wine 12 months in barrel, only a quarter of it new and with no lees stirring. That restraint fits the lighter touch she brings to this biodynamic domaine. It's rare, but it's also worth seeking out for what's in the glass.

"The 2024 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos de l'Arlot Blanc 1er Cru was taken directly from tank. This has a subtle bouquet with peach skin, pithy pear, brioche and light white flower scents, a hint of lanolin emerging with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a slightly toasty entry, a fine bead of acidity and impressive weight with a bit of CO2 on the finish that will be absorbed with time." —Neal Martin

More about Domaine de l'Arlot

For several decades now the Domaine de L'Arlot has been following its own path to creating wines that reflect both the subtleties of diverse terroirs and a distinct "house style" that is unique in Burgundy. The Domaine is located in Premeaux, on the southernmost edge of the Cotes-de-Nuits where Nuits-St-Georges tends to resemble Chambolle in elegance and perfume.

In 2015 the very talented Geraldine Godot was given full control of the domaine. She is committed to continuing the traditions of the house including biodynamic farming and a high percentage of whole clusters during fermentation. However she is making small changes, using less extraction and less new oak to achieve even more balance and grace.

The heart of the Domaine's holdings are two 1er Cru monopoles in Nuits-Saints-Georges: Clos de L'Arlot and Clos des Forets. These vineyards produce some of the most elegant wines in Nuits and are perfect examples of the finesse and purity of terroir that L'Arlot achieves.

They also have small parcels of vines in two of the top vineyards in Vosne-Romanée: Romanée-Saint-Vivant and Suchots. These blue chip wines are complimented by a range of excellent values from the Haut-Cotes and other sites surrounding Nuits.
