2022 Vintage: A Benchmark for Excellence

The 2022 vintage was exceptional, with 30% of the grapes being whole bunches, enhancing complexity. Cold maceration and aging in French oak (20% new) for 12 months resulted in a wine that is as approachable now as it is poised for aging through 2032. Ruby-purple in color, it boasts generous red fruit framed by delicate minerality and silky, refined tannins. This wine is a true reflection of the 96-point Côte de Beaune vintage, with the rich flavors and balance of 50-70 year old vines that delve deep into limestone, offering complexity and balance unmatched by younger vines.

• Whole Bunches: The inclusion of whole bunches adds depth and complexity to the wine, enhancing its overall character.

• French Oak Aging: Aging in French oak imparts a subtle richness while maintaining the wine's elegance and structure.
