Domaine Faiveley - Clos Vougeot Grand cru 2022

Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2022 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is deep and chunky, offering up aromas of burning embers, dark berries, orange zest, violets and spices. Full-bodied, layered and muscular, with a blocky core of fruit and tannin despite very gentle extraction, it will reward a bit of patience.

Jérôme Flous and his team have produced another compelling range of 2022s, and it's hardly surprising, given the high level of vineyard management chez Faiveley or the skill and precision brought to bear in the winery and the cellar. As is often the case up and down the Côte d'Or, the style is more delicate and sensual than was the case in 2020, and the wines seem set to offer broad drinking windows.

James Suckling

Very fleshy, suave and fragrant. This has excellent concentration and beautiful harmony of ripe fruit with fine toasty, smoky oak plus ample velvety tannins. The finesse at the front is every bit as impressive as the structure that builds in the long finish. From organically grown grapes from a 1.3-hectare plot. Matured in 50% new oak and 50% once-used oak. Drinkable now, but best from 2027.
