May 25, 2023 - Domaine Arlaud’s 2012 Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru from Les Ruchots was a showstopper. Taking a whiff of a nose filled with lots of smoke and strawberries before being poured into the decanter while we enjoyed champagne, my excitement was palpable. Trying the bottle soon thereafter a palette of those ripe strawberries, red cherries, earthiness and herbs/spices emerged in a light bodied, but matured Morey-Saint-Denis. Backed with bright acidity and a silky finish, this wine was both balanced and complex, pairing perfectly with a meatier sea bass on the night.

May 21, 2023 - Phenomenal wine. In a lighter but very pure and elegant style. At a peak for the moment.

February 17, 2022 - Showed beautifully today - great acidity, dark cherries, spice, mushrooms. Great length, developed over 1.5h or so! Nice. Great QPR

April 30, 2020 - Dark cherries on the nose, spices (rosemary and thyme?) and cellar. Dark colour. Excellent balance on the palate, silky tannins, good fruit and acidity. Long. Excellent wine at the peak now and a few years to come (if you like your wines before decay sets in). Third and last bottle.
