Meo-Camuzet Les Chaumes is a wine that beautifully embodies the finesse and elegance characteristic of the Vosne-Romanee appellation. With a delightful balance of fullness and charm, this wine is approachable and irresistibly captivating. While it may not reach the legendary heights of Meo-Camuzet's "Les Brulees" or "Cros Parantoux," it offers a more accessible, easy-drinking experience that will seduce wine lovers effortlessly. Pair it with roasted duck, wild mushroom risotto, or a creamy brie for a meal that enhances its elegance and charm.

The Chaumes from Méo is very consistent; the 2022, however, is particularly good. The black plum and cherry fruit is more forward and pronounced than it has seemed in recent years, and the palate has impressive depth and density of extract. The tannins are firm but not astringent, and the finish lingers on the palate. Méo's holdings here are extensive – two parcels total over two hectares, lying just below Malconsorts. The grapes are destemmed and fermented with fairly firm extraction before ageing in cask (half new).

Note: from a 2-ha parcel. An exuberantly spicy and very Vosne nose speaks of ripe black pinot fruit, clove, anise and whiffs of hoisin and jasmine tea. The very supple and generous medium weight flavors are caressing and seductive even if not especially concentrated, all wrapped in a dusty and youthfully austere finish where a hint of mocha slowly emerges. This is firm enough to repay up to a decade of cellaring.
