Bourgogne Rouge 2022
Domaine Pierre Guillemot
Jasper Morris Score & Notes
2022, Bourgogne Rouge
86-88 Fresh purple, a riotously attractive bouquet, lifted fresh raspberries. Crunchy vigorous red fruit and a wealth of strawberry juice to finish. Drink rather than cellar. Drink from 2024-2025. Tasted: October 2023.
William Kelley, Wine Advocate
2022, Bourgogne Rouge
88 Bursting with aromas of sweet cherries, berries, rose petals and orange zest, the 2022 Bourgogne Côte d'Or is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a succulent, charming profile that belies its track record of aging with grace.
Kelley on Guillemot 2022s: The irrepressible Vincent Guillemot had every reason to smile as he showed me his family's 2022 portfolio, a range of wines characterized by purity and generosity of fruit. As readers will remember, this seven-hectare estate is rather classical, the reds fermenting in wooden tanks with temperature control, followed by élevage with modest percentages of new wood. Whole clusters increasingly play a role here. The wines are remarkably consistent, surpassing expectations in challenging years and fully delivering in more propitious vintages.
