Arnaud Lopez is a passionate winemaker based in Nuits Saint Georges whose journey began assisting at Prieuré Roch for over ten years before launching his own project, Maison Pinot Noar, in 2018. His approach marries a deep respect for Burgundy’s rich traditions with a modern curiosity for minimal intervention and expression of site. Lopez works vineyard by vineyard, hand harvesting organic fruit and embracing whole cluster fermentations. His winemaking philosophy centres on patience and precision, capturing the energy and nuance of each parcel to create wines that resonate with elegance and subtle power.
The Chevrey vineyard parcels are located on gentle slopes with predominantly limestone and marl soils offering good drainage and moderate fertility. The 2023 vintage was marked by steady temperatures and balanced rainfall, encouraging slow phenolic ripening and vibrant natural acidity. Lopez uses around 60 percent whole cluster fermentation followed by approximately 20 days of gentle maceration to carefully extract fresh red fruit aromas and floral complexity. The wine aged for 11 months in older neutral barrels to retain purity and chalky minerality. It expresses notes of redcurrant, rose petal, and subtle spice supported by silky tannins and a fresh, precise finish.
