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

James Suckling (97-98) Mind-blowingly deep and subtle nose of stone fruit with citrusy nuances. All the density of Batard, but with such elegance at the extremely long, focused finish. Great potential! From old vines purchased in 2008. More Info

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-97) Mid lemon yellow. Some delicacy, without disputing the imminent power. A pure bench of fresh white fruit, actually this is more about nuances than power, though it maintains energy all the way through, to a fine long finish. Love the tension, and the finesse, while some other versions may be more intense. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: October 2023. More Info

Burghound (94-97) (from a 1.29 ha parcel). A classic Bèze nose of spice, earth and plenty of floral influence leads to succulent and round yet decidedly intense, muscular and powerful flavors that coat the mouth with sappy dry extract while delivering huge length on the seamlessly balanced if moderately austere finish. This is also terrific More Info

Vinous - Neal Martin (91-93) The 2022 Echézeaux En Orveau Grand Cru is quite "strict" on the nose, a little taciturn at first, offering more black than red fruit and More Info

James Suckling (98-99) Such a salty wine with intense preserved lemon, flint and chalk dust character. Awe-inspiring power and concentration, yet so bright and vivid, the sweetness of the fruit precisely balanced by the stunning mineral acidity. More Info
Faiveley Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St Jacques (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	91-93 (BH)	In Bond €1,154.77	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years.

Burghound (91-93) Moderate wood again frames the fresh and unusually expressive nose of forest floor, the sauvage and various wild red berries. There is impressive concentration to the powerful and tautly muscular medium-bodied flavors that display excellent length on the very firm finale where the only reproach is a touch of warmth. This is already attractively complex and a wine that should age gracefully over the next 12 to 15 years More Info
Faiveley Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Cazetiers (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	91-94 (IB)	In Bond €1,154.77	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-94) Faiveley pulled out quite a lot after the frost. There is still plenty left to make this wine, though. Solid red crimson colour, with a delicious red fruit nose with its mineral overlay. Alpine strawberries, fair concentration, very detailed, maybe just needs to kick on more at the finish. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted: October 2023. More Info
Faiveley Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	93-95 (IB)	In Bond €1,154.77	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-95) The Les St Georges comes under the negociant label, Joseph Faiveley, as the produce of their own vines is mixed with two other sources, one of which is the Hospices de Nuits. A deep crimson colour. The bouquet is relatively luxurious, a super succulent ripe raspberry, with very good tension behind. This seems very young, but the abundant fruit and the structure are promising. The fruit on the palate is fresher than for the village Nuits. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: October 2023. More Info
Follin-Arbelet Romanee-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	93-96 (IB)	In Bond €1,312.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96) The wine is nowadays vinified by the Poisot cousins who own the vineyard, with some wine then being sold to Domaine Follin Arbelet. Glowing crimson. Still quite backward, the nose showing some of the flamboyance of its origins, but it is in an awkward stage, showing a lot of oak and some tannins. A little chunky, though with the requisite length. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted: October 2023. More Info
Fontaine-Gagnard Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	94-96 (VN)	In Bond €815.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Vinous (94-96) The 2022 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has an almost clinical bouquet with more penetration than the Criots served alongside. The medium-bodied palate has fine tension, but there is a real delicacy about this Bâtard with a very persistent, controlled finish and hints of white peach on the aftertaste. Wonderful. More Info
Fontaine-Gagnard Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanee (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	93 (VN)	In Bond €1,154.77	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Vinous (93) Wipe your tears because this is the last vintage of Chassagne-Montrachet La Romanée 1er Cru for now; the vines were pulled up after the harvest as production had tumbled to untenable levels, plus there was unacceptable soil erosion. The well-defined bouquet is intense with yellow plum, Mirabelle, crushed stone and wilted white flowers. The palate is very well-balanced with superb tension, focused and energetic with a saline finish. Bowing out in style. More Info
Fontaine-Gagnard Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	92 (VN)	In Bond €1,154.77	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Vinous (92) The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru has wonderful delineation and poise on the nose, real frisson, with yellow fruit, egg whites and wild peach. Love it! The palate is very well-balanced with a touch of reduction, elegant in style, perhaps needing more depth and grip on the finish. But this is very suave and nuanced. More Info
Fontaine-Gagnard Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Blanc (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	92 (VN)	In Bond €1,154.77	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Vinous (92) The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeots 1er Cru has a terroir-driven, minerally bouquet with crushed stone filtering through the orchard fruit and subtle hazelnut and litchi scents developing in the glass. The palate is well-balanced, perhaps just a little conservative/timid at the moment, precise yet bashful. Hints of rose water and peach skin towards the finish. One of the prettiest cuvées from Fontaine-Gagnard this year. More Info
Fontaine-Gagnard Criots-Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	94-96 (VN)	In Bond €815.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Vinous (94-96) The 2022 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a terse, stony bouquet with touches of granite, orange pith and grilled walnut aromas that gradually gather momentum in the glass. The palate is very well-balanced, with a reductive note lending tension and poise. Surfeit with energy, this fans out wonderfully and is one of the longest in the mouth. Due to be bottled next spring, this is a magnificent Criots. More Info
Fontaine-Gagnard Le Montrachet Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	95-97 (VN)	In Bond €1,980.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Vinous (95-97) The 2022 Montrachet Grand Cru is the only cuvée in two one-year-old barrels. I don't think it needs new oak. There is real energy and complexity here, orange pith and lemon verbena, touches of lemon curd. The palate is beautifully balanced with great depth and power, far more than the Bâtard-Montrachet. It has a beguiling length and precision, velvety smooth, with a hint of walnut on the finish. Divine. More Info
Guyon Clos Vougeot Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022 Estimated Arrival to United Kingdom: +1 year	Burgundy	1	96-99 (IB)	In Bond €2,365.00	View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (96-99) (5 Star Wine) 100% new Tronçais wood, for April bottling. A deep central core of purple. Very intense indeed without being clumsy. There is a massive structure here to build on, but it is all about the intensity of the fruit. Deep red not black, almost as thrilling as the 2020 Echezeaux. Waves more fruit come flooding back across the palate, with everything in perfect proportion. Drink from 2032-2040+. Tasted: November 2023. More Info
Guyon Echezeaux Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022 Estimated Arrival to United Kingdom: +1 year	Burgundy	2	95-98 (IB)	In Bond €4,140.00	View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-98) 100% mixed forests, to bottle in April. Fine mid purple. The nose is not so drop dead stunning as the Clos Vougeot but it is still impressive, and then the palate delivers yet more. Some rose petals, some vibrant deep red fruit, chiselled and intense at the same time, nuanced without latticework. Then a firm structure. Looks like becoming a great wine but under the cosh from the Clos Vougeot this year. But there is a breadth of fruit here nonetheless. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted: November 2023. More Info
Guyon Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru En Orveaux (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	94-96 (IB)	In Bond €1,315.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96) 100% new wood, to bottle in April. The wood comes from mixed forests, as Jean-Pierre thinks Tronçais doesn’t work here. A bright fresh crimson ruby. More floral more sensual, the early morning rose says Jean-Pierre. This is more quintessentially Vosne than the Brûlées, with a lifted and balanced flair, a mix of darked red fruits, avoiding the blacker side. White pepper spice becomes more apparent at the end. A thick velvet coat of fruit throughout. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: November 2023. More Info
Guyon Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Les Brulees (3x75cl) 2022 Estimated Arrival to United Kingdom: +1 year	Burgundy	2	94-97 (IB)	In Bond €1,900.00	View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-97) (5 Star Wine) Deep ruby crimson colour. At this end of the scale the power of the fruit and the vineyard character completely outweigh the vinification. 100% new wood (Tronçais) is invisible. Instead, we find the slaty and singed character of the vineyard, plus an astonishing wealth of fruit. A thickness of texture which is extraordinary. Quite stunning this year with the blood red depth of fruit. Enough acidity behind and exceptional pure as well as concentrated. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: November 2023. More Info
Guyon Vosne-Romanee Les Charmes de Maizieres (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	92-94 (IB)	In Bond €815.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94) 100% new wood, to bottle in April. A rich purple colour, more saturated. Less floral than the regular Vosne, more in little red fruits. Excellent density, bright fruit backed by a little liquorice note, while the structure behind indicates that this will need time to come round. Drink from 2029-2037. Tasted: November 2023. More Info
Henri Boillot Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	95-98 (IB)	In Bond €1,865.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-98) A glowing pale yellow. Super-concentrated if not yet very yielding bouquet. Extra tension here, certainly some depth, but perhaps more in class than power. That will change with time – the class with remain but the depth will expand. White fruit, tension, some youthful bitters, but keeping itself to itself for the moment. Really very long finish though. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted: December 2023. More Info

Henri Boillot Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022 Estimated Arrival to United Kingdom: 8-10 weeks	Burgundy	2	93-96 (IB)	In Bond €1,090.00	View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96) Mostly Aloxe with a touch of Pernand. Quite a full lemon yellow. The bouquet offers a balanced ripeness, with flinty notes more than opulent fruit. This Corton-Charlemagne shows very lively, white fruit, a little citrus, river bed minerals behind, and excellent persistence. Lots of crunch to finish. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: December 2023. More Info
Henri Boillot Echezeaux Grand Cru (3x75cl) 2022	Burgundy	-	92-94 (IB)	In Bond €846.00	If a product is only available on pre-order then the suggested prices are to be used as a guide, and are based on release prices from previous years. The final release price will be confirmed later View
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94) Purple in the centre with a lighter rim. The nose speaks a little of its oak and a lot of its fruit, a riper style of red berries, yet with good acidity behind, indeed quite fresh at the finish after a slight heaviness up front. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: December 2023. More Info
