Domaine Méo-Camuzet Corton Grand Cru 2022
Burgundy wine Clos Rognet
The nose is expressive, indeed even explosive with real volume and really pretty spice cut with plenty of earth and an elegant touch of minerality that leads to big, almost robust flavors underpinned by firm but ripe tannins and excellent length. This is a powerful and muscular wine

"The sappy, jam-like intensity to the black fruits in Meo’s 2008 Corton Clos Rognet as well as their resinous and medicinal overlay and bold accompanying tannins won’t be every pinotphile’s dream. But this is certainly not just a powerful Pinot but also a powerful representation of Corton minerality in its sense of stony underpinnings. A vintage-typical tartness of berry skin helps enliven the otherwise sweet, rich, yet at the same time tannic and stony finish. If you like the style and have some faith, this should I suspect lie forgotten in your cellar for the next 5-6 years and thereafter be savored over at least that long a period. But will the tannins here – or the sharp edges (if that’s an appropriate expression for he wine’s tart notes) – really “round out”? Or ought we to some extent to see them as simply part and parcel of the vintage character? Nicolas Meo himself responded candidly that he couldn’t be sure, but that he didn’t for a minute doubt the sheer longevity of a wine like this." (2010)

"Moderate wood influence does not dominate the notably ripe purple and blue fruit nose laced with plenty of earth and humus notes that continue onto the fresh, intense and overtly muscular big-bodied flavors that are also quite powerful and culminate in a palate staining finish. This is very Corton in 2008 though not rustic." (2010)

The 2008 sports a lovely black cherry, iodine and cherry pitnose, comes onto the palate generously juicy with under tones of game
Domaine Bart
Bonnes Mares
A distinctly earthy and spicy nose flashes notes of dark cherry, rose petal and raspberry. The much richer and more concentrated big-bodied flavors possess excellent power on the robust, dusty and mouth coating finish
Domaine Bart
Clos De Bèze
An exuberantly spicy nose combines notes of plum, dark currant, violets and underbrush. There is terrific intensity and a lovely minerality to the ripe and well-delineated medium weight
Domaine Livera Philippe
Chapelle Chambertin
This is quite deeply colored in the context of what is typical for the 2016 vintage. Ripe and deeply pitched aromas speak of plum liqueur, various dark berries and plenty of earth, sauvage and forest floor elements

Pommard
Domaine Comtes Lafon
Santenots Du Milieu
A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful

Santenots Du Milieu
A ripe, fresh and attractively spicy nose reflects a variety of both red and dark pinot fruit nuances

Puligny Garenne
Domaine Tortochot
Chambertin
An impressively ripe nose that does not display any notes of surmaturité features mostly wild dark berry fruit aromas and ample earth notes
