"The sheer beauty of the 2015 Méo Cros Parantoux is enough to take one’s breath away. This is a very young and utterly brilliant wine, wafting from the glass in an exotic blend of raspberries, cherries, red plums, raw cocoa, complex minerality, classic Vosne spice tones, violets, a hint of mint, lavender and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and seamless, with a sappy core of fruit, great soil inflection, fine-grained tannins and a very, very long, refined and tangy finish. Magical juice."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
