Understanding Domaine Arlaud, Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, Burgundy
Through biodynamic farming practices, Domaine Arlaud ensures that its Clos de la Roche vineyards foster a pure expression of the unique terroir. The vineyard's prime location, characterised by its rocky soil rich in limestone and clay, imparts a signature minerality and depth to the wine. The winemaking process is executed with precision to preserve the varietal's distinct character. From selective hand-picking of grapes to fermentation with indigenous yeasts and ageing in part-new French oak barrels, every step is designed to accentuate the wine's structural elegance and aromatic richness. Domaine Arlaud's Clos de la Roche displays dark fruit, florals and spice supported by a firm tannic backbone and a lingering finish. This Grand Cru promises the development of further complexity and nuance with time.
