  April 21, 2024 - Tasting through Bruno Clair's impressive 2022 portfolio. There is much to like about the wines and this vintage in general. These are complex, deep wines with an enchanting, bright red fruit perfume. The purity is impressive, and silky elegance can be found in all the wines down to the village level (their Gevrey Village has to be one of the best village level Burgs I've had). The star of the lineup was unsurprisingly their bright, pure and refined Clos de Beze (96pts+), followed by a very promising, slightly more muscular and mineral-driven Bonnes Mares (95pts).
  
  TN: An intense, expressive, highly refined nose with layers of red berries, pure strawberries, spice and a chalky minerality. Wow, so enchanting. The same complexity and aroma profile on the palate with that very pure red berry core to die for and additional aromas of cola and gingerbread as well as a beautiful salinity. Despite the youth this wine is already so easy to drink with ultra-fine tannins, superb freshness, a silky texture, no excess in any category and quite a perfect balance.
