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

This is at once ripe, layered and elegant with its aromas of the essence of red pinot fruit, Asian-style exotic tea and appealing hints of cinnamon and sandalwood. There is a sleek and refined mouthfeel, if limited density, to the decidedly vibrant and stony flavors that possess solid length on the moderately austere, firm and balanced finale. As noted, this is not particularly concentrated but despite the lack of mid-palate density, it does not lack for power, length and balance. Impressive and I would add that this isn’t so structured that it couldn’t be enjoyed young.HK$9,982.48 -
