91+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): “The 2017 Domaine Méo-Camuzet Vosne-Romanée AC is truly excellent this year and, to my palate, a notable step up from their Nuits villages in this vintage. The beautiful bouquet offers up a refined blend of plums, black raspberries, cocoa powder, duck, Vosne spices, a lovely base of soil and cedary wood. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and shows lovely mineral undertow, with a fine core of fruit, suave tannins and lovely length and grip on the very well-balanced finish. I drank a lot of the 1989 Vosne AC from Jean-Nicolas in its youth, as it was irresistible, and other than the 1989 version having toasty oak tones and the 2017 more of a spicy oak signature, the wines are extremely similar in style and this is going to be an excellent village wine. It will be approachable early on, but based on my experience with the 1989 version, I would suggest letting it rest in the cellar for four or five years and let its secondary layering emerge. 2023-2055. (Nov/Dec 2018)”

91 points Jasper Morris (Inside Burgundy): “Fresh bright purple, a little bit of new oak on the nose but a sense of concentrated fruit beneath, pure ripe fruit, concentrated, with excellent length. (Jan 2019)”
