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 (91-93)The 2022 Puligny-Montrachet Vieilles Vignes 1er Cru comes mainly from Hameau de Blagny. This is well-defined and focused on the nose: orchard fruit, grass clippings, and glimpses of exotic scents such as guava and passion fruit. Very pure in style. The palate is well-balanced with more tension than the Les Enseignères, a touch of reduction lending complexity on the finish. Promising. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-94)Pale lime tints to the colour. Quite closed on the nose, a little positive reduction, plenty of energy but tightly wound. Then a significant concentration of pure white fruit, evidently with plenty more to give later on. I did not quite find the anticipated personality and intensity, but this may just be going through a very closed stage. Drink from 2028-2034. Tasted: October 2023. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-95)Pretty pale primrose in colour. The bouquet is a little more open, showing slightly riper fruit than the more chiselled Clos de la Pucelle. Quite a complex range of flavours with some ripe citrus zest, a mix of yellow fruit, yet nothing over opulent. There is plenty more to discover from this wine which finishes with a fine refreshing acidity. Drink from 2028-2035. Tasted: October 2023. |
