Domaine de L'Arlot has been an organic estate for ten years. In 2009 Olivier Leriche began harvesting on September 7 and ended around the 15th. The wines were vinified with a higher than normal percentage of whole clusters and spent 20-25 days on the skins. I tasted most of the 2009s from barrel. Leriche planned to bottle the wines with no fining or filtration. I also tasted a handful of 2008s. The 2008s were bottled between April and July 2010 (a bit on the late side because of the lengthy malos) with no fining or filtration.

Due to rot issues, Olivier Leriche vinified in 2008 with a lower percentage of whole clusters than usual-and even less than in 2007. But he reported that the grapes were ripe, with potential alcohol levels ranging from 12.4% to 13.1%. And the skins were thicker in 2008 than in the previous year. Leriche loves the balance of the new vintage: he believes the 2008s will be long agers but that they have the fruit to give early pleasure. The 2007s are considerably lighter wines that will evolve faster, but the estate's top cuvees are subtle and refined.
