My notes on the vintage at Méo-Camuzet and on tasting these and other 2015s from barrel and tank at the estate are here.

2015 Bourgogne-Hautes Côtes de Nuits Clos Saint-Philibert Chardonnay
This wine is an excellent example of the high quality that one can get from the Hautes Côtes de Nuits and Beaune — with the proper producer and vintage. The wine is round, smooth, and mineral with a medium-weight body. 91/A
2015 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Chaumes
The Vosne-Chaumes is dense with dark fruits, some minerality, good length, and finesse. 93/A
2015 Clos-de-Vougoet
Last, the Clos-de-Vougeot has dark fruit and finesse, but the wine is quite primary for the moment. Expect to cellar this wine for 15-20 years before it achieves full maturity. 93+/A-
