"The 2009 Les Cras from Méo-Camuzet is also quite ripe in profile, as it offers up a complex bouquet of black cherries, dark berries, chocolate, smoky overtones, game, a complex signature of soil and oak spice. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and quite nicely reserved on the attack, with firm ripe tannins, a rock solid core of fruit and lovely length and grip on the ripe and well-balanced finish. Good juice in the making."

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.
Produces the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
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.
