FRANCE / BURGUNDY /
Jancis Robinson | Rating: 15
Sweet and citrus and easy and slightly New Worldy. Fine bt not thrilling. Not 100% obviously burgundy.Author: Jancis RobinsonIssue: 39302Burghound | Rating: 86
This is aromatically ripe to the point of being exotic with rich, full and nicely voluminous flavors underpinned by a ripe acid spine and plenty of finishing vibrancy and minerality. A delicious wine meant to be consumed young.Author: Allen MeadowsIssue: 3rd Quarter, 2007

Politics has always played a significant role in the history of French wine, for better or worse, and that is especially true for Domaine Meo-Camuzet. Parliamentarian Etienne Camuzet began buying up prime blocks in Burgundy's most prized vineyards in the early 1900s, and from this land winemaker Jean-Nicolas Meo continues the domaine's tradition of producing acclaimed wines. The family's holdings read like a "who's who" of the Cote d'Or; they have plots in Richeboug, Clos de Vougeot, Corton Clos Rognet, and Echezeauz, in addition to a longer list of Premier Cru and Village-level sites. Balance is the key for Meo, both in the vineyard and the cellar. With Henri Jayer consulting on winemaking, Jean-Nicolas creates domaine wines of excellence that reflect a true "sense of place." Meo-Camuzet also has a wine merchant arm, bearing the title Meo-Camuzet Frere & Soeurs, which sources fruit from Fixin, Marsannay, Chambolle, and Nuits-Saint-Georges.
