  Dark color, fruit is primary but the wine is accessible with soft tannins. Very good now with upside for a decade or more.

  Sleek and racy - heady nose of inky dark blackberry and blueberry cassis compote, deep minerally "cave-y" notes on the nose, herbal notes such as fresh crushed thyme chiming in, dark chocolate covered raspberry... lovely

  The 2009 Corton Perrières' nose remains inwardly focused with a brooding core of raspberry and coffee. Plush texture and rather harmonious for the vintage. Needs time to unwind but all the necessary inputs are there. Drink starting 2024.

  This bottle was stellar. I was apprehensive because Meo wines rarely show before 15+ in bottle. Of course we have a structured Corton in the glass her but from the very first sniff this is accompanied by racy raspberry fruit with sweet spices, earthy tones and gingerbread. Sour cherry on the long finish, tons of dry extract but not drying. A great Corton, early in its drinking window. 2020-2035

  Decanted at 2:30 pm. Tasted along with a webcast of Nicolas-Jay owners Jay Boberg and Jean Nicolas Meo in which they discussed the winery, and region as well as tasting wines from both Meo-Camuzet and Nicolas-Jay. Continued to enjoy over a birthday dinner of thick cut grilled pork loin chops through about 10pm. The wine is bright translucent medium ruby with no bricking. At first the nose is muted and reticent but became more effusive after several hours in the decanter, showing earthy florals, tobacco and sweet cherry. The acidity isn’t exceptionally high, I would say only medium with low to medium tannin. The palate has a smooth, rich texture with a savory and meaty profile with hints of red florals and red currants. Finish has a lot of tobacco, metallic minerals and is quite long. Excellent with the Jamaican jerk rubbed pork chop. Probably premature to try this but with the long decant it was very enjoyable. I think this will continue to age fairly well but I think it will be best over the next 10-15 years and not age as well beyond that due to the modest acidity.
