Tasting notes for the Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru "Les Chaumes" 1997 - Méo-Camuzet
- EYE: This Vosne-Romanée, once poured into the glass, reveals a slightly evolved ruby-red robe. The gentle touch of time imparts a delicate hue, bearing witness to the maturity of the 1997 vintage.
- NOSE: The aromatic bouquet unfolds with finesse. Notes of candied cherry, weathered leather, and forest undergrowth harmoniously intertwine. Woody aromas, subtly vanilla-infused, underscore the well-integrated barrel aging.
- MOUTH: The tasting unveils a refined structure. Tannins, gracefully softened by aging, gently caress the palate. Evolved red fruit flavors persist, accompanied by subtle hints of truffle and tobacco. A lingering acidity provides a welcome freshness.

One of the greatest estates of the Côte d'Or
The Domaine Meo-Camuzet has been making wine for more than 400 years. In 1984, the figurehead of a new Burgundy generation took over from his father, Jean. His name is Jean-Nicolas Meo. A few years later, in 2003, he offered his two sisters, Angeline and Isabelle, a partnership and together they started a trading house. This would give them the strength they needed to answer the ever-growing demand.
The wines from the Vosne-Romanée estate (Côte de Nuits) are sold all over the world and the world of haute cuisine is especially fond of them. They are made with nature and tradition in mind. The Meo family, for whom the genius Henri Jayer used to work in 1945, aims to find a perfect balance in their produce, born from a wine making process with very few human meddling.
