Decanter Magazine: 96 Points
Meo's Clos de Vougeot has a forward black cherry and lavender aroma with hints of earth and spice. The texture retains great elegance and finesse, with supple but firm tannins, abundant fresh acidity, and a lovely depth of extract. This wine has an alcohol level among the highest in the cellar, but it is still under 14% - an admirable achievement in 2022. Méo tells us that he will blend his parcels to make one wine this year from his 2.75 hectares of vines in La Garenne (Près le Cellier) and Grand Maupertuis.
Vinous: 92-94 Points
The 2022 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru comes from a blend of three parcels vinified separately, matured in 80% new oak, and blended before bottling. The well-defined bouquet is initially understated, with red and black fruit mixed with subtle marine scents, oyster shells and sea cave. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth texture. It has good concentration and is quite elegant, with gentle grip and much more complexity than the 2021 last year. It feels long and tender. Give it four or five years in bottle, and you will have a fine Clos Vougeot.
