Vosne-Romanee, Cyprien Arlaud 2020

Appearance: A vibrant ruby-red color with a slightly garnet rim, indicating a youthful yet elegant Pinot Noir.

Nose: Highly aromatic and complex, with notes of ripe red cherries, raspberries, and strawberries. Layered with subtle hints of rose petals, violet, and spices such as clove and star anise. As the wine opens up, earthy undertones of forest floor, truffle, and a touch of smoky minerality emerge, characteristic of the Vosne-Romanée terroir.

Palate: Medium-bodied with a refined and silky texture, displaying an exquisite balance between fruit, acidity, and tannin. The palate reveals flavors of fresh red berries—cherry, cranberry, and wild strawberry—along with more profound elements like black tea, licorice, and a hint of savory herbs. The tannins are finely grained, providing structure without overwhelming the delicate fruit profile.
