2022 Domaine l’Arlot Vosne-Romanee Suchots 1er (Pre-arrival)

“The 2022 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru, matured in 40% new oak, is intense on the nose, opulent yet controlled with mainly red berry fruit, allspice and rose petal scents, just a hint of black olive emerging with time. Very well-defined. The medium-bodied palate comes armed with a voluptuous entry, almost viscous in texture, intense yet delineated with a gradual build to its sweet and detailed finish. This will require four to five years to open for business, but it is certainly a “serious” Les Suchots with a wonderful spicy edge. (Drink between 2028-2050)”
