  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: Intense red fruit on the nose, complemented by spices and minerality. Harmonious and inviting. On the palate this has impressive depth with a broad array of red and blue fruit, cola notes, stems, menthol, spices, minerality. Very fine, silky tannins and lots of freshness. Quite complete and easily 93/94pts.

  January 19, 2024 - Tasting the 2022s from Bruno Clair. Barrels typically used no longer than 3 years. The Villages wines showed common features of graphite and animal notes and were of consistent quality across vineyards. Bruno Clair’s array of wines full reflect the diversity of terroirs they own. Of the Villages, Les Champs Perdrix was the most promising and Bonnes Mares took the gold medal. The reds outshone the whites from vat.
  
  Tasting note:
  Red cherry with elements of cassis, mixed herbs all on top of a mineral and fine earthy base. Juicy palate with sweet fruit and sandy tannin. Good density.
