Domaine Arlaud Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2017

$225

Cyprien Arlaud took the reins of the Domaine from his father Herve in 1997, a Domaine that encompassed vineyards in Morey St. Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, Gevrey-Chambertin and Vosne-Romanee. It wasn't long before he realized that the key to success was in the farming and treatment of the vines, followed by a low-impact approach in the cellar.Plowing by horse, and conversion to biodynamic practices were quickly adopted, long before these terms become the newest catch-phrases in Burgundy. In the cold cellar of Domaine Arlaud, Cyprien continues his work with partial whole clusters and a minimal reliance on new wood. The result is a portfolio of site-transparent wines that speak of purity, the earth from which they came and the essence of what makes Burgundy great.I suppose in the end it all comes full circle, because as important as the producer is to the success of Burgundy, the successful producer puts all of their faith in the quality of the land. Either way, no matter how you see it, Domaine Arlaud has become on of the region's top producers, deserving of your attention and space in your cellars.

Freaking amazing. Perfect integration of earth, mushroom, spice, clove, subtle floral notes, and Cherry fruit with expressive minerality. Just brilliant - archetypal chambertin. Worth seeking out.
