2018 Domaine Meo Camuzet, Vosne-Romanee Premier Cru, Aux Brulees, Bottle (750ml)

Wine Advocate | 95-96 Points

"The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brûlées is brilliant, unfurling in the glass with an exquisite bouquet of sweet red berries, cherries, orange rind, smoked duck and exotic spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, concentrated and enveloping wine framed by velvety tannins and succulent acids, concluding with a long and youthfully chalky finish. From a parcel planted in the 1930s, I often think that Aux Brûlées is Méo's finest wine; and while I'd give the Cros Parantoux the edge this year, it is a superb effort."

Burghound | 93-95 Points

"An exuberantly spicy mélange features notes of poached plum, spiced Asian pekoe tea, cassis and lovely violet and lilac nuances. The palate impression is rich to the point of opulence with a positively gorgeous texture that carries over to the palate drenching though decidedly firm and mineral-inflected finish that goes on and on. There are hints of wood and warmth but neither are enough to materially detract from just how good this is. *Don't Miss!, Outstanding*"

The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brûlées from Domaine Méo-Camuzet captures everything collectors love about great Vosne: power wrapped in silk.

Sourced from old vines planted in the 1930s and guided by the enduring influence of legendary winemaker Henri Jayer, the wine layers ripe red and black fruits, exotic spice, incense, orange peel, and floral notes over a deeply mineral core.

The warm, concentrated 2018 vintage gives the wine remarkable depth and richness, yet it still retains the lift, precision, and refined structure that define the finest wines of Vosne-Romanée.

Long considered one of Jean-Nicolas Méo’s greatest holdings, Aux Brûlées sits just below the Grand Crus of the village and regularly performs at that level.

Critics praised the 2018 for its balance of intensity and elegance, with Wine Advocate calling it “brilliant” and one of the domaine’s finest wines.
