2011 Morey St Denis 1er Cru Les Blanchards, Domaine Arlaud"I just love where this domaine is going. Cyprien is clearly a skilled winemaker who extracts the best from his enviable array of holdings. Stylistically, they lean ever so slightly toward what you might call a more "modern" style, the Pinot fruit slightly blacker than red, yet it would be deceiving to describe them as "modern." They have a sheen to them, a vitamin like purity that truly comes into its own among the premier and grand crus. " Neal
