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

Wine Advocate (94+)The 2022 Meursault Les Rougeots is beautiful, unfurling in the glass with aromas of pear, confit citrus, freshly baked bread, toasted sesame and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's textural and structured, with lively acids, chalky dry extract and a suave, seamless profile. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2022 Meursault (Rouge) has a perfumed bouquet that's more floral with extra red fruit tones and Pinot Noir DNA compared to the Auxey-Duresses. This has fine delineation. The palate is crisp on the entry with crunchy red fruit, fine mineralité and a vivid, graphite-tinged finish that lingers in the mouth. This is a classy red Meursault with fine length. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (93)The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Dent de Chien 1er Cru has a very seductive bouquet: lemon sorbet, orange blossom, melted candle wax and very subtle lanolin scents come to the fore with aeration. The palate is well balanced with satisfying weight on the entry. This is a little more rounded in texture compared to its peers, perhaps just slightly lower in acidity, yet the poise and generosity on the finish win you over. What a lovely Chassagne. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (96)The 2022 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a "cooler" nose with wet stone, sea cave and touches of grassy meadows unfolding discreetly in the glass. Superb delineation. The palate is supremely well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, tensile and almost steely in character. Yet there is such depth and intensity in this wine, and it fans out gloriously towards the sapid finish that beckons you back for more. Noble and intellectual.

Coffinet-Duvernay Chassagne Montrachet Blanchots Dessous 2022 is a finely etched white from France, Burgundy, Chassagne-Montrachet, sourced from the lower section of Blanchots Dessous, where stony, well-drained soils help deliver precision and mineral tension. Domaine Coffinet-Duvernay is recognised by leading Burgundy specialists for its exacting, low-intervention approach in both vineyard and cellar, favouring purity of fruit and site transparency over overt winemaking signature. The 2022 captures the sunny generosity of the vintage with a Chassagne frame: ripe orchard fruit and citrus peel, layered with hazelnut, white flowers and a saline, limestone-driven finish. On the palate it is medium-bodied yet incisive, balancing supple texture with disciplined acidity and a long, tapering close. Coffinet-Duvernay Chassagne Montrachet Blanchots Dessous is compelling young for its energy, yet built to gain nuance and complexity with bottle age. |

The wine is aged for 12 months, enhancing its complexity and depth. Coffinet-Duvernay is renowned for its dedication to sustainable viticulture, reflecting a profound respect for terroir and tradition.

Vinous - Neal Martin (88-90)The 2022 Bourgogne Aligoté was picked two weeks after the main harvest and racked just before the 2023 picking. It has quite a primal bouquet with grapefruit and Conference pear, gaining delineation in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with a lovely sense of "rondeur," slightly lower in acidity than last year but with commendable purity on the finish. Lovely. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)(5 Star Wine) First we tasted the component parts. (1) Young vines from 1980s. A deep concentrated purple. Lesser foliage in the hot dry summer has concentrated the colour and other aspects, giving a dark style of fruit as well, with a nutty finish, but good acidity. (2) A blend, mainly from plot #3 and a bit of #1. Mid purple in colour, less demonstrative on the nose. A much suppler style of fruit, less forceful acidity, fine length, more typical Epenots here. (3) Old vines, 90+ years old: A deep glowing purple. A little more intensity, a gorgeous quality of deep red fruit, just a touch tougher in its tannins, plus the acidity. (4) Press wine: dark purple, powerful rather than fine on the nose, more volatile, but could be useful in the blend. Sweet thick dark red to black fruit. Chunky stuff. And now the blend: A deep purple colour with only a very slightly lighter rim. The bouquet suggests poise as the fruit has melded together harmoniously. On the palate this is, as almost always, a much more complete wine than the individual parts. The wine seems to push down deeper while retaining all the class of the very best components. We are approaching the cusp of red and black fruit, the acidity is perfectly harnessed and the tannins are fine grained. Potentially a very fine Clos des Epeneaux. Drink from 2032-2040+. Tasted: October 2023. |
