Arlot, Nuits Saint Georges Clos Arlot Blanc other_regions_italy This is the first timeOnce again there is a vaguely exotic character to the toasty aromas of menthol, citrus, tea and spiced apple. Like the Gerbotte, the medium weight flavors are impressively dense with a succulent and opulent texture, all wrapped in a slightly austere, nicely dry and lingering finale. This is also a bit rustic, but I like the balance.
