Meo Camuzet NSG 1er Cru Aux Murgers - 2022 *Arriving April 2025

A clearly pronounced personality: powerful, sometimes wild aromas; a marked acidity, which give it a captivating freshness; a fine roundness, sometimes even opulence. In short, an intense wine which has many cards in its hand to win you over.

Burghound 90-93: A deft application of wood sets off the markedly ripe yet still nicely fresh nose of poached plum, black cherry liqueur and warm earth. As one would reasonably expect, there is better volume and density to the more powerful medium-bodied flavors that are at once rich and caressing before terminating in a palate soaking, very firm and sneaky long finish. Lovely and a wine that should be approachable after only 5-ish years yet easily reward a decade plus of cellaring.

Vinous 90-92: The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Murgers 1er Cru comes from a vineyard most affected by the frost the previous vintage, so this year, there were 12 barrels instead of four. Matured in 60% new oak, the pretty bouquet has brambly red fruit, forest floor and light crushed stone aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a little more weight than the preceding Vosne Chaumes. There’s gentle grip with a dash of black pepper on the finish. Drink over the next 15 to 20 years.
