Domaine de l'Arlot Romanee Saint Vivant Grand Cru 2023

Just across the road from Romanée-Conti lies this silky masterpiece from clay-limestone soils that whisper sophistication. Aromas of black cherry and raspberry jelly bloom into a seamlessly integrated palate with textural richness and barely-there tannins. Fermented with native yeasts and aged 15 months in oak (40% new), the 2023 balances generosity with minerality, revealing violets and stony undertones on a saline finish.
