Domain Meo Camuzet Vosne Romanée Aux Brulees 2015 Magnum
In 2015, Domaine Méo-Camuzet produced a red Burgundy Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brûlées, crafted from 100% Pinot Noir. Hailing from the Aux Brûlées parcel, this premier cru combines ample, satin-textured fruit with a fresh backbone and very fine tannins. The Wine Advocate awards it 95/100, describing a profile of ripe black berries, candied citrus peel, raw cocoa and sweet spices, driven by a pure and vibrant expression. Recommended drinking window: 2025 to 2050.

Domaine Méo Camuzet
Domaine Méo-Camuzet is a family-run estate based in Vosne-Romanée, in the Côte de Nuits. Its vineyard comprises plots in the Côte de Nuits and, following the acquisition of vineyards in Volnay and Pommard in 2025, in the Côte de Beaune. The estate is managed by Jean-Nicolas Méo, whilst winemaking is overseen by the oenologist María Ignacia Navarro González.

Histoire du domaine
The estate’s history is linked to Étienne Camuzet (1867–1946), a winegrower, mayor of Vosne-Romanée and Member of Parliament for the Côte-d’Or, who gradually built up a substantial portfolio of vineyards in the early 20th century. In particular, he acquired the Château du Clos de Vougeot in 1920 and retained three hectares of vines within the clos after the château was sold to the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin in November 1944. On his death in 1946, his daughter Maria Noirot-Camuzet inherited the estate. Having no children of her own, she bequeathed it in 1959 to her nephew Jean Méo, who was then working in General de Gaulle’s office. Jean Méo maintained the sharecropping agreements, notably with the Faurois and Tardy families as well as with Henri Jayer. The estate adopted the name Méo-Camuzet in 1981, and its first bottles marketed under this label date from 1983. In 1984, Jean Méo gradually handed over the management to his son Jean-Nicolas, who moved to Vosne-Romanée in 1989 after studying business management and oenology. As all the sharecroppers ceased their activities in 2008, Jean-Nicolas Méo has since been managing all the estate’s vineyards. A separate wine-trading company, Méo-Camuzet Frère et Sœurs, was established in the early 2000s with the same family shareholders. In 2025, the estate acquired 3.4 hectares of Pinot Noir in Volnay and Pommard, bringing the total area under its direct management to approximately 21.4 hectares.
Aux Brulées
Aux Brulées is an officially recognized climat for the Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru appellation, located on the slope northwest of the Richebourg grand cru, near Cros Parantoux and Les Beaux Monts. Viticultural mapping also links part of the La Combe Brulée cadastral lieu-dit to this appellation. Institutional sources generally describe the terroirs of Vosne-Romanée as east-facing, on carbonate soils mixing limestone elements, clayey marls, scree, and fine particles, but they do not provide a distinct and complete pedological characterization for Aux Brulées alone.

Histoire de la parcelle
The toponymy of Aux Brulées preserves the memory of land clearance by paring and burning carried out to establish certain vineyards. The AOC Vosne-Romanée was recognized by decree on September 11, 1936. In 1943, Aux Brulées was integrated into the recognized list of climats eligible for the Premier Cru designation, a list based on the classification of Côte crus established in the 19th century; the current product specification confirms this designation and also partially includes La Combe Brulée in its cadastral correspondence.
