Domaine Méo-Camuzet Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru 2021

Robert Parker : 90-91 points
"In tank waiting bottling when I last tasted it, the Meo-Camuzet 2008 Nuits-St.-Georges Aux Boudots smells and tastes of confitured blackberry, cocoa powder, and soy, with caramel and resin notes well-integrated, and humus, peat, forest floor, as well as salty notes taking on increasing importance as you work the wine up in your mouth, the upshot being a complex, savory, saliva-inducing, palate staining finish unobstructed by the wine’s density of tannin. This should be worth watching and enjoying for a decade, and makes a lovely example of terroir in action as well, since it’s impossible not to make the connection between “Boudots” on the map and the sense in which this Pinot tastes more like one from Vosne than from Nuits-St.-Georges, whereas no such resemblance characteristically applies to the Meo Nuits-St.-Georges from Les Murgers or Perrieres."

Allen Meadows : 90-92 points
"In 2008, at least at this early stage, this chameleonesque terroir is more Vosne than Nuits with a wonderfully layered and distinctly spicy nose of blue and black pinot fruit trimmed in evident wood notes that introduces rich, full, supple and palate coating medium-bodied flavors that possess plenty of mid-palate extract that buffers the ripe structural elements. This is a relatively big and powerful ’08 with real volume." (2010)
