The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges derives from parcels in Au Bas de Combes, Aux Athées and La Petite Charmotte. Offering up a deep-pitched bouquet of sweet berry fruit, spices, rose petals and dark chocolate, it’s medium to full-bodied, elegant and perfumed, with an enveloping core of fruit, powdery tannins and good length on the finish. This is a fine bottling that will be comparatively accessible young this year. The 2018 vintage has turned out brilliantly at Domaine Méo-Camuzet, delivering exquisitely balanced wines that were strikingly expressive, even demonstrative, when I visited in late November. Méo’s wines see quite a long élevage, and they can often be a little structural and introverted in the fall following the vintage, but these 2018s were simply singing. Méo began his harvest on August 29, and like a number of his peers, he observes that his parcels didn’t necessarily ripen in the usual order in 2018, with his holdings in Corton in particular accumulating sugar very rapidly. But careful attention to the date of harvest meant that most wines in the cellar are around 13.5% alcohol this year, with only a couple hitting 14%. Beautifully balanced and structurally refined, the Méo-Camuzet wines will enjoy very long lives this year, and they come warmly recommended.
