It produces some of the most celebrated wines from the Côte d'Or from a range of grand cru vineyards, including Richebourg, Clos de Vougeot, Corton and Echézeaux. Most of Méo-Camuzet's wines are made from Pinot Noir, and are known for their delicate aromatic concentration. The founder of the estate was Etienne Camuzet, an early-20th Century politician based in Paris, who offered parts of his estate to a variety of sharecroppers to farm. Eventually, it came into the hands of Jean-Nicholas Méo in 1986, who realized that the extensive sharecropping meant that only a small portion of vines were under the domaine's control. He set out a long-term strategy to regain the plots from the sharecroppers who were currently working them, with the goal of eventually having estate-grown fruit and bottling under his own label, Méo-Camuzet.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2022-12-14T17:02:40-05:00","created_at":"2022-12-14T11:39:55-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK1412","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Méo-Camuzet","Region_Burgundy","Source_Continental1222","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Pinot Noir"],"price":79999,"price_min":79999,"price_max":79999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42624446890122,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2016 | Méo-Camuzet | Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":79999,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/6_ca985391-b167-420a-b5f8-046bc38fef70.jpg?v=1671037156"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/6_ca985391-b167-420a-b5f8-046bc38fef70.jpg?v=1671037156","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2016 | Méo-Camuzet | Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru at CaskCartel.com","id":23766239608970,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":540,"width":225,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/6_ca985391-b167-420a-b5f8-046bc38fef70.jpg?v=1671037156"},"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":540,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/6_ca985391-b167-420a-b5f8-046bc38fef70.jpg?v=1671037156","width":225}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2016 | Méo-Camuzet | Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA noticeably, and agreeably, floral-infused nose speaks of a pretty variety of red berries that are laced with hints of earth, spice and oak.
