Domaine Meo-Camuzet Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2012

This outstanding 2012 Méo-Camuzet Clos Vougeot Grand Cru presents a deep ruby color with a complex nose of black cherries, blackberries, and cassis, complemented by notes of violet, licorice, and earthy undertones. The full-bodied palate boasts concentrated dark fruit flavors, refined tannins, and a vibrant acidity that leads to a lengthy, minerally finish. While this wine is already showing its potential, it will continue to evolve and improve over the next decade or more. One of Burgundy's great estates, Vosne-Romanee based Domaine Meo Camuzet is intrinsically linked to one of the great winemakers of the region, Henri Jayer who consulted to the winery for many years. Currently run by Jean-Nicolas Meo the estates vineyards are farmed organically and include spectacular holdings such as Richebourg, Échezeaux, Clos de Vougeot and the famous Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru, Cros Parantoux, the legendary vineyard made famous by Henri Jayer. Treading the fine edge of power, purity and concentration while retaining a sense of fineness and grace the wines of Meo Camuzet have a stellar track-record for aging and are a much sought by wine collectors
