Firm reduction renders the nose unreadable at present. There is however good freshness to the slightly bigger and richer yet still quite sleek flavours that possess focused power on the impressively precise, youthfully austere, and quite serious finish. This doesn't have quite the same grace as the Combottes but it's a quality effort as it's built-to-age and a wine that's going to need at least half a dozen years of patience first while rewarding 15+.

Cyprien Arlaud embodies the third generation of Domaine Arlaud, a relatively recent family history since it is the fruit of the meeting and marriage of the Burgundian Renée Amiot and the Ardéchois Joseph Arlaud, the estate was born in 1942. Forty years later, in 1983, their son Hervé Arlaud took over the reins of the vineyard and continued to expand it; it drove many changes, the wines signed Arlaud therefore went organic in 2004 and biodynamic in 2009, certified since 2014. The estate now covers 15 hectares, and has taken over the vines of Guy Coquard in following his retirement in 2004. Cyprien has been managing the estate since 2013 and is surrounded by his brother Romain and his sister Bertille, who is responsible for the two workhorses. They have all three been able to develop a resolutely modern version of classic vinification. Wines that are still very elegant, fine and pure, and with promising aging potential.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
