Clos des Forêts Saint-Georges is a monopole, exclusively owned by Domaine de l`Arlot. The two-hectare vineyard of Clos de l`Arlot red consists of two distinct soil types. the upper section features white oolite soil where young vines are planted, while the lower section contains marl with ostrea acuminata, where some of the old vines grow. Only grapes from the oldest vines contribute to the Clos de l`Arlot red cuvée. The 1996 vintage presents a lovely nose of rose petals, forest floor, earth, raspberry, and cherry. It boasts a silky texture and depth of flavour. With a delicate muskiness, it evolves gracefully on the palate, revealing a mineral-driven finish.

Good bright dark red. Perfumed aromas of cassis, blueberry, violet, mint and spice. Sweet berry flavor is given sharp delineation by strong but harmonious acidity and mineral underpinning. Finishes fresh and long. Has a solid tannic spine but is not at all dry. A felicitous combination of elegance, intensity and power.Stephen Tanzer1st March 1999
