Burgundy 2022 En Primeur: Blue Skies Over Beaune, Verdant Vines In Vosne
After the unusually cold and small-yielding 2021, the 2022 vintage swung back to what we might consider the “new norm”. With an overall abundance of warmth and sunshine, timely rainfall in June and August helped to balance out any effects of the heat. Early impressions tell a story of wines in general produced with more richness and concentration than their predecessors, with the best of them retaining all important freshness and disarming equilibrium.
Jasper Morris is the first critic to release the 2022 vintage report. He praised the vintage as "bountiful and beautiful" and recommends collectors to consider cellaring the wines.
"Vintages that came to mind were 1985 for the health of the grapes, 1999 for the size of the crop and the relative consistency of quality though with a bias towards the Côte de Beaune, and 2002 – just short of top flight but a really lovely flavour profile of medium density and longevity." Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
"All other things being equal, I would recommend going large in 2022, large in the sense of a broad range because there are so many really good wines at all levels." Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy

Vinous - Neal Martin (95)The 2022 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has a powerful bouquet with ripe raspberry and strawberry scents, incredibly pure and opulent but it still maintains focus and delineation. The palate has a slightly candied entry and supple tannins. It's lower in acidity than I recall a couple of years ago, with a plush and sensual finish. Just a dab of white pepper on the aftertaste. Primal and requiring time but a dashing Latricières. Tasted at the Latricières vertical at La Cabotte, London. |

Edouard Delaunay Beaune 1er Cru Les Greves
(6x75cl)
2022
|
|
Burgundy | - | 87-90 (IB) | د.إ1,170.00 | ||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (87-90)Mature vines in the lower central part of Grèves, with all bunches destemmed, two weeks cuvaison, 35% new wood, still in barrel, bottling expected in March. Crimson red, a rather sombre nose, lacks life. The oak is currently much too powerful and slightly dries the wine. Dark red fruit some spice, and a touch of liquorice, but with a slightly bitter finish. In a difficult place at the moment. Tasted: November 2023. |
|||||||||
Edouard Delaunay Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru
(6x75cl)
2022
|
|
Burgundy | - | 93-96 (IB) | د.إ6,185.00 | ||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)Fine mid purple. Two barrels, two producers, some Mazoyères mixed in. 100% new wood, grains fins. This also is pretty massive, though that perhaps hides the character of Charmes whereas it supports Clos Vougeot. Still, it is important to defend a little more extraction at a time when too many feet are being taken too far off the pedal. There is a light and unimportant toasty reduction, plus some of the sweet Charmes strawberry fruit, then a crunchy mineral note to the finish. A little bit dissociated at the moment but scored for its definite potential. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: November 2023. |

Edouard Delaunay Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru
(6x75cl)
2022
|
|
Burgundy | - | 94-96 (IB) | د.إ6,185.00 | ||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)5 barrels, two from Petit Maupertuis destemmed, three others which are in new barrels and with 100% whole bunch vinification. The Clos Vougeot is very reductive at first, though this starts to blow off. There is a huge volume of fruit though and the two halves seem to marry up. Actually, rather an astonishing weight of fruit at the back of the palate. Definitely a Vin de Garde. This still needs more elevage but is very promising. Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted: November 2023. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-93)From Evocelles, En Songes, and below La Justice. 50% whole bunch vinification, 35% new wood. Fairly deep crimson. The stems do lift the nose, dark strawberry with pepper. Really significant weight behind, far from simple strawberry, with balanced tannins, enough acidity and very good persistence. The concentration hides the wood. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted: November 2023. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-93)Laurent characterises Argillats as a hot and cold terroir. 15% whole bunch vinification, 3 barrels of which two new. Not quite so deep in colour and a little lighter in fruit, though the oak marks the nose, and the palate. Nonetheless, I think the fruit will fight through, and it has an appealing fresh red fruit quality. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted: November 2023. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)80 year old vines in clay soil, a vineyard run by the Delaunay team. Destemmed 36% new wood, all destemmed. Dark crimson purple. The Chaponnières has a lovely bouquet of dense ripe cherries and a good fruit acid balance, I find this wine altogether livelier and more interesting than the Beaune Grèves. Drink from 2028-2035. Tasted: November 2023. |

|
Burgundy | - | 93-95 (VN) | د.إ3,433.00 | ||||
Vinous (93-95)The 2022 Chablis Les Butteaux 1er Cru has a very perfumed bouquet with yellow plum, wet stone, hints of jasmine and melted wax. This is very complex. The palate is well-balanced, taut and fresh, with a fine bead of acidity and nice edginess with a saline finish. Harmonious and sophisticated, this will age beautifully in bottle. |

Burgundy | 3 | 92-94 (VN) | د.إ1,555.00 | |||||
Vinous (92-94)The 2022 Chablis Le Bas de Chapelot underwent partial tressage in the vineyard this year, so the Vocorets could compare. They found the fruit ripened earlier with more intense aromas. These will be bottled separately. It has a lovely peachy, nectarine-tinged bouquet that blossoms in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with touches of grapefruit and white peach. It is very elegant and pure, with a touch of spice towards the finish. Simply a mouthwatering prospect - difficult to believe this is not a Premier Cru. |

Elodie Roy Santenay 1er Cru Les Gravieres 2022 is a finely wrought red from France, Burgundy, Santenay, drawn from the Premier Cru climat “Les Gravières”, prized for its stony, well-drained soils and naturally incisive structure. Crafted by Élodie Roy, one of the reference names in Santenay, it is made in a resolutely artisanal vein, with an emphasis on precision rather than power, allowing site expression to take precedence over overt winemaking signatures. In the glass, Elodie Roy Santenay 1er Cru Les Gravieres shows the cru’s hallmark tension: pure red-berry fruit layered with savoury, earthy nuances and a discreetly spicy edge, carried by finely etched tannins and a cool, persistent finish. It is a connoisseur’s Premier Cru—more about line and detail than opulence—rewarding cellaring as its mineral backbone and aromatic complexity unfurl. |
