2022 Excellent Burgundy Adventure; 10/31/2022-11/6/2022 (Burgundy): Expressive nose displaying incredibly concentrated ripe yellow fruit, peach, apple, honey, cream, sweet spices and strong mineral. Exceptional concentration, layers upon layers of concentrated sweet yellow fruit, rich and oily but also beautifully detailed and balanced, medium acidity and strong mineral, and a long rich ripe yellow fruit driven finish with honey at the end. It expresses the 15 richness and although only showing medium acidity, the strong mineral expression provides nice balance.

Elegant and balanced, yet so direct and powerful. There’s a myriad of aromas and flavours ranging from blossom to citrus to mineral and spice. It is layered and glides effortlessly over the palate. The finish has great cut and is so expansive and long.

First crack at this vintage. I'm an unabashed lover of Carillon Bienvenues, and this is a very good if not outstanding vintage. Lovely nose. In true Carillon style it beguiled us and the bottle was empty far too soon.

great balance between power, acidity and fruit. Full-bodied. Great lenghth. Great producer.
