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

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)A glowing pale lime colour. Some restrained floral notes, but not demonstrative. On the palate there is a strong line of chalky white fruit, with a discreet intensity, but clearly adequately ripe. Not a wine to drink young as there is so much more to give. Drink from 2028-2035. Tasted: October 2023. |

Emanating from highly-revered Burgundy producer Joseph Colin, the Puligny-Montrachet Le Trezin 2022 exemplifies the craftsmanship residing at this prestigious estate. The wine within emanates from Puligny-Montrachet, a revered region in Burgundy known for producing exquisite Chardonnay. Drawn from decades-old vines of the Le Trezin vineyard, this wine embarks upon a meticulous journey from vine to barrel, using traditional wine-making methods inclusive of spontaneous fermentation and lees ageing in French oak barrels, carefully managed to impart just a hint of oak. The elegance of the Joseph Colin Puligny-Montrachet Le Trezin 2022 is pure, undiluted magic in a bottle, revealing subtle notes of ripe orchard fruits, citrus, and floral undertones harmoniously balanced by minerality. This is a wine that truly speaks of its place of origin, promising an unparalleled tasting experience that is distinctly Joseph Colin. Drink now or cellar for up to a decade to let its complexities unfurl. |
