"From a huge 3 ha parcel superbly placed high on the slope, across from the Château. A fresh and relatively expressive nose speaks of both red and blue pinot fruit, earth and a touch of underbrush that is also reflected by the detailed and impressively concentrated flavors that possess more mid-palate density than I usually find with this wine, all wrapped in a powerful and hugely long finish that, rather than displaying youthful austerity, is silky. This is one of the better young Méo Clos de Vougeot of recent years."

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.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
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.
