Arlaud, Clos Roche Size:3x750ml A real standout wine

A real standout wine

41% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot

There is enough reduction to render the nose difficult to evaluate though it does seem ripe

Arlaud, Clos Roche Size:3x750ml A real standout wine(from a . 36 ha parcel in Mochamps 75% from 25+ year old vines and the remainder from 40+ year old vines). Reduction and a background note of new wood presently dominate the nose but the supple, forward and relatively suave flavors possess good freshness and verve on the delicious, complex, mouth coating and impressively lingering finish. This has an extra dimension of depth relative to the Morey 1ers but otherwise, this isnt all that much better. (91
