Méo-Camuzet Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2016

Burgundian royalty in liquid form - noble, complex, utterly commanding.

Opens with aristocratic restraint. Rose petals, dark cherry liqueur, wet limestone. Haunting minerality threads through everything. The oak integration is flawless - vanilla and cedar never intrude, only enhance. Silk-wrapped iron describes the texture perfectly. Tannins are present but refined, like velvet gloves. Mid-palate reveals layers: forest floor, dried herbs, blood orange zest. The finish stretches endlessly - thirty seconds of pure Burgundian magic. This 2016 shows the vintage's perfect balance of power and finesse. Will evolve beautifully over two decades. A wine that makes you understand why Clos de Vougeot commands such reverence. Méo-Camuzet has crafted something truly exceptional here.

🍷 You want to experience Burgundy's aristocratic soul and have a special occasion worthy of liquid poetry.
