Tasting Notes and Scores
Outstanding. Not surprisingly, this is more elegant and refined than the Clos Rognets with moderate oak influence tussling somewhat against the pretty, layered and highly spiced red berry fruit and violet aromas that dissolve into delicious and impressively concentrated flavors that are more refined and very pure, all wrapped in a rich, full and sweet finish of outstanding length. A quintessential Vosne but one with power and punch. Drink 2020+.

The Meo-Camuzet 2008 Vosne-Romanee Les Brulees â tasted from thank âdisplays what for this vintage and address is by now familiar blackberry jam, here flatteringly mingled with violet and lily perfume; nutmeg, vanilla and cocoa powder; and a carnal and salted caramel melange that calls to mind roasting pan drippings. Heady in aroma and splendidly rich and expansive on the palate, this creams-over its formidable tannins with sheer lush fruit and torrified confections while preserving an invigorating, mouthwatering salinity and animal savor. Palate staining and generous though this is, its strong tannins hang on long enough to have the very last, slightly disconcertingly austere word, reinforced by a suggestion of stone-licking. After a few spits, I had a bit of a time getting my tongue back in between my incisors and my faintly numb gums. I suspect this will want 5-7 years in cellar and be worth holding â and, of course, periodically savoring â for at least 15 years.

Good bright, full red. Much darker on the nose than the Clos Rognets, with black cherry and dark raspberry dominating. At once densely packed and juicy, with strong dark raspberry fruit lifted by subtle herbal, spicy and peppery nuances. The wine's sappiness and brisk peppery acidity call for six or seven years of cellaring.

Racy on the palate â very fresh and polished. Suave. Lip-smacking and refreshing though a bit dry on the end.
