Domaine Henri Gouges LES PRULIERS 1er Cru Nuits-Saint-Georges
Description: The Henri Gouges domain was established in Nuits Saint Georges at the very beginning of this century. Founded by Henri Gouges, it was subsequently developed by his two sons, Michel and Marcel. In the last 15 years Pierre and Christian, the grandsons, have carried on the traditions of the estate by continuing the quest for excellence in everything they do both in the vineyards and in the cellars, they produce wines considered to be the benchmark for Nuits. The wines are produced on 14.5 hectares of vineyards and includes holdings in 6 Nuits St. Georges 1er Crus. Uncompromising about quality and respectful of the typicity of the different vintages, the harvest is entirely destemmed and vinification takes place in lined cement vats for approximately fifteen days, depending on the vintage. After cuvaison, the wine is transferred to small oak barrels and after 18 months ageing in oak barrels, using a maximum of 20 % new oak in the final blending, the wines are fined with egg whites and given a light filtration before bottling. The 1.8 hectares of this parcel have the benefit of an ideal location and exposure to the sun in the heart of the Nuiton vineyard. Both youthful , and mature , these vineyards give body to wines. A great reflection of the terrior this Pinot Noir has aromas of dark forrest fruits, supple tannins and an enjoyable long finish. Limited Availability. (12 x 75 cl)

Domaine de l'Arlot CLOS DE ARLOT 1er Cru Nuits-Saint-Georges
Description: Domaine de L'Arlot takes its name from the 'Clos de L'Arlot', a ten acre vineyard surrounding the elegant house, which in turn takes its name from a small river that runs through the village of Premeaux and underground under the Clos. Most unusually for Burgundy, Jean Pierre de Smet did not inherit the domaine from his family and only came to the area and wine-making in 1977. He then studied oenology at Dijon, following which he was invited by AXA Insurance in 1987 to be a partner, manager and wine-maker in the domaine they were about to buy. De Smet's skill and willingness to innovate along with the inherent quality for the terroir have combined to project Domaine de L'Arlot to the very top with De Smet picking up countless medals for his wines. Clos-de-l'Arlot is a 4ha plot in Nuits-Saint-Georges and it has produced a light red coloured wine. Displaying plenty of Pinot Character the smoky, plummy nose gives way to a rich, soft palate with a complex finish. With the exception of two parcels in Vosne Romanée, the vineyards are located South of Nuits-Saint-Georges in the Cote de Nuits. There are many old vines, some of them over fifty years old, but the average is about twenty-five years. Strict pruning and very light fertilisation ensure very low yields to ensure that the very best quality is achieved in the grapes. The 'lutte raisonnee' approach informs viticultural practices, bringing them as close to organic as is reasonably feasible and only spraying as little as possible when it is absolutely necessary. This encourages a more beneficial ecosystem in the vineyard, allowing nature to establish its own checks and balances. In the winery intervention is kept to a strict minimum and yeasts are 100% wild. After a manual harvest, whole bunches are gently pressed, followed by a slow fermentation with temperatures being allowed to reach a maximum peak of a little over 30°c for a day. The wine then undergoes two to three weeks post-fermentation maceration, and fining, if it occurs at all, is carried out using fresh egg whites. The wine is then matured for just under two years in Domaine-seasoned Allier new oak. (12 x 75 cl)
