"The 2014 les Vignes Cents was really showing beautiful potential at the time of my visit, wafting from the glass in a very fine blend of red and black cherries, venison, coffee, stony soil tones, mustard seed, cedary wood and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very suave on the attack, with a fine core, lovely soil signature and a very long, ripely tannic and beautifully balanced finish. An outstanding young Corton."-John Gilman
Méo-Camuzet is one of the most celebrated domaines of the Côte d’Or, located in the heart of prestigious Vosne-Romanée. The domaine boasts fourteen hectares of land in some of the most spectacular appellations and crus of Burgundy. The vineyard land in Burgundy is highly parceled out among families, which makes it rare for anyone to have enough vines to be able to bottle one grand cru, let alone the six that the Méos have. The early beginnings of the domaine left it in the hands of share-croppers. The last twenty years have brought substantial changes that have fostered a new chapter for the Méo family.

The 2014 Corton la Vigne Au Saint Grand Cru comes from a tiny parcel bouquet in 2009 and constitutes only two barrels. It has a winsome redcurrant and red cherry bouquet that is very precise and charming, perhaps tinged with Vosne-like elegance. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, grippy and structured, quite compact and perhaps at the moment just missing that long tail on the finish. That may fill out with time, so give it 3-4 years after bottling.
