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

Crafted with exceptional precision from Côte de Beaune in the Burgundy wine region of France, the Chavy-Chouet Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes 2022 is a testament to the distinguished appellation's historic excellence. This exalted Chardonnay, nurtured in Premier Cru vineyards, embodies the true essence of Meursault. The esteemed Domaine Chavy-Chouet, a small-scale family-run winery with seven generations of expertise, beautifully exploits the uniqueness of the plot and the remarkable diversity of the soils. Indulging in traditional practices, each vine is handpicked and fermented in oak barrels for up to 15 months, providing an exquisite balance between freshness and richness. Boasting a robust palette of golden fruit, complemented by refined minerality and delicate creamy nuances, this vintage exhibits subtle complexity and warm longevity that delightfully lingers on the palate.

An attractive lemon yellow. Just after bottling the oak has taken the higher ground. Good lemon intensity behind the white fruit which fills the middle ground. Quite a fleshy Meursault, though still in balance. Drink from 2026-2033. Tasted: October 2023.
