Meo-Camuzet Vosne-Romanee (2021)

Méo’s village-level Vosne is among the best wines at this level. It features a dark mulberry fruit with accents of earth and sweet spice. There density and tannin to spare, giving this a substantial texture that drinks more like a premier cru than a village-level wine. The grapes come mostly from Les Barreaux up-slope from Richebourg and Cros Parantoux. The rest is Aux Communes. The grapes are destemmed and gently fermented on native yeasts before ageing in cask (half new). There is more than enough extract here to support the generous oak treatment for this village wine
