Description

Hailing from the renowned Grand Cru 'Clos de La Roche' in Burgundy, the Magnum from Domaine Arlaud is an extraordinary example of Pinot Noir that reflects the excellence of the Côte de Nuits terroir. Cultivated in one of Morey-Saint-Denis' most prestigious vineyards, this wine from a particularly warm vintage stands out for its complex structure and unparalleled depth.

On the nose, the Clos de La Roche emanates intense aromas of ripe berries, dark grains, plus an intriguing touch of damp earth and dark chocolate. On the palate, the experience is multi-layered with notes of cherry, plum, and a hint of leather, complemented by a long and persistent finish that leaves traces of exotic spices and vanilla. The wine exhibits a beautiful finesse that deftly contrasts its robust intensity.

Ideal for aging, this Magnum is perfect for any collector's cellar or to be enjoyed on very special occasions, perhaps accompanied by rich dishes such as meat stews or aged cheeses.

Winery history

The property originated from the union of the Arlaud and Amiot families and developed over time through targeted acquisitions and family management across generations. The family consolidated its presence in the Côte de Nuits by preserving a historic 14th-century cellar for ageing, and with the generational transition to Cyprien Arlaud the estate has grown to include numerous local appellations and Grand Cru parcels.

Production philosophy

The estate has progressively reduced chemical treatments and has adopted organic and biodynamic farming practices to enhance the expression of each individual terroir. In the vineyard, manual and natural interventions are favored; in the cellar, fermentation is encouraged by native yeasts, with controlled pressings and bottling without fining or filtration to preserve the wine’s identity.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are situated in the Côte de Nuits around Morey‑Saint‑Denis and in neighbouring communes, with parcels that also include Grand Cru sites. These soils—ranging from clay and marl to the area's characteristic limestone—contribute to the stylistic diversity of the domaine's cuvées.
