A Corton Grand Cru from Burgundy, from the Clos Rognet of Domaine Méo-Camuzet

The estate

Based in Vosne-Romanée, in the Côte-d'Or, Domaine Méo-Camuzet has borne this name since 1981, the year Domaine Camuzet was renamed. The first wines under this label date from the 1983 vintage. Its history, however, goes back much further: it traces back to winegrowers from Selongey in the 17th century, and then to Étienne Camuzet. A family-owned estate belonging to the Méo family, it is run by Jean-Nicolas Méo, who has directly farmed all of the vines since 2008. It owns several grands crus in Burgundy, including three on the hill of Corton.

The vineyard

This Corton Grand Cru comes from the Clos Rognet, a small parcel located in the northern part of the Corton appellation, in the commune of Ladoix-Serrigny. Facing due east, it is still surrounded by its old walls. It is planted with old Pinot Noir vines. The estate keeps interventions in the vineyard to a minimum.
