Domaine de L'Arlot Clos de L'Arlot, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru, France 2021 Champagne Chartogne-Taillet juicy dark berries

juicy dark berries

the fruit wins over the oak here though here Very linear every year and I can certainly see the backbone

Delicate tannins on the palate with flavors of licorice and cassis lead to a long delightful finish

but peppery spices

A beautiful balance of fruit and boney structure

Domaine de L'Arlot Clos de L'Arlot, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru, France 2021 Champagne Chartogne-Taillet juicy dark berriesComplex nose of red berries, savory and wet earth with just a hint of candied citrus peel. Quite a bold and seriously structured wine with excellent depth for the challenging vintage, but nothing even remotely approaching a hard edge. This will need some time to give its best, but the balance is there at the simultaneously crisp and velvety finish. 95 Pts James Suckling
