The 2022 Bordeaux vintage is exceptional, setting a new benchmark for the region with its remarkable balance, freshness, and structure. Despite one of the hottest and driest growing seasons in Bordeaux's history, winemakers have successfully adapted their techniques, producing outstanding red and white wines that show the region's resilience in the face of climate change.
The red wines of the 2022 vintage have been compared to the legendary vintages of 1947 and 1949, sharing similar qualities of ripeness and freshness. They stand out for their freshness, balance, and vibrant fruit profiles. Winemakers avoided creating overly heavy wines by employing various strategies, such as leaving full canopies of leaves to shade the grapes and dialling in slightly larger crops to preserve freshness and obtain lower alcohol levels. They also focused on picking their grapes at optimal ripeness, giving the wines a crunchy and clean character with fine, structured tannins.
Take advantage of the opportunity to secure some of the finest examples from the 2022 Bordeaux vintage for your collection.
