Ripe Red Currants, Rose Petals, and Sovereign Clos de Bèze Majesty

The 2022 Domaine Bruno Clair Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru is a monumental, opulent, and aristocratic red Burgundy from one of the most revered vineyard sites on earth. Sourced from ancient vines planted as far back as 1912 on limestone-rich upper slopes, it masterfully marries the rich fruit concentration of the 2022 vintage with intense Grand Cru nobility. Soaring aromas of ripe red currants, dark raspberries, crushed rose petals, blood orange zest, and exotic spices lead into a full-bodied, satiny palate framed by ultra-fine, chalky tannins and an endlessly long, mineral-driven finish.

Terroir, History & Acclaim

Critical Recognition:
Burghound 93-96 pts
Wine Advocate 94-96 pts
Jasper Morris MW 95-98 pts
  • 93-96 Points (Don't Miss) - Allen Meadows (Burghound): Here too a discreet touch of wood is perceptible on the ripe aromas of pretty, even perfumed red berries that are mixed with pretty floral and spice wisps. The mouthfeel of the succulent, round and highly seductive large-bodied flavors is quite sleek as the supporting tannins are dense but fine on the lingering finish that exhibits excellent power and drive. This is very much built to repay extended keeping though it should be worth the wait. In short, this is potentially brilliant.
  • 94-96 Points - William Kelley (Robert Parker's Wine Advocate): Aromas of cherries, red berries and plums mingle with rose petals, spices and bergamot to introduce the 2022 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru, a medium to full-bodied, deep and fleshy wine that's supple, suave and enveloping, with an ample core of fruit, lively acids and sweet, melting tannins.
  • 95-98 Points ★★★★☆ - Jasper Morris MW (Inside Burgundy): Mid purple, fresh and silky bouquet. Just a little more discreet than either Cazetiers or Clos St-Jacques. This is quite a cerebral wine. All is there, especially further back on the palate along with some refined tannins. Quite nuanced, still discreet but long and fine, not hedonistic. Drink from 2032. Tasted Nov 2023.
  • Ancient Vines on Hallowed Terroir: Bruno Clair owns almost one hectare in Clos de Bèze, situated on the steep upper slope where thin, iron-rich chalk soils cover hard Bajocian limestone. The oldest vines here were planted in 1912 and 1972, granting exceptional depth, spice, and aromatic intensity.
  • Artisanal Craftsmanship by Bruno Clair: Farmed organically with low yields and partial whole-cluster inclusion. The combination of ancient vines and gentle, low-intervention winemaking captures the sheer nobility, spicy perfume, and long cellaring grace of this mythical Grand Cru.

Highlights

  • 100% Pinot Noir harvested from ancient Grand Cru vines (planted up to 1912) in Chambertin-Clos de Bèze.
  • A radiant 2022 release packed with ripe red currants, dark raspberries, rose petals, blood orange zest, and exotic spices.
  • Crafted by Domaine Bruno Clair, offering 20 to 40+ years of monumental cellaring potential.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Deep, glowing crimson-ruby with luminous purple reflections at the rim.
  • Nose: Soaring, complex, and intensely perfumed. It opens with aromas of ripe red currants, dark raspberries, and black cherries, accompanied by crushed rose petals, blood orange peel, raw cocoa, and five-spice powder.
  • Palate: Dry, medium-to-full-bodied, and beautifully satiny. The entry brings a rich wave of dark red berry sap that glides across a structured mid-palate, held in balance by fine-grained tannins and vibrant limestone acidity into an endlessly long, majestic finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve slightly cool at 14–16°C in large Burgundy glasses to allow its complex Grand Cru aromatics to uncoil.
  • Decanting: A generous 1-to-2 hour decant is strongly recommended if opening young. Cellar-worthy through 2060+.
  • Western Pairing: Roasted rack of lamb, venison saddle with berry reduction, beef Bourguignon, or wild mushroom risotto.
  • Asian Pairing: Peking duck, Taiwanese braised pork belly (Lu Rou Fan), charcoal-grilled wagyu beef, or roast goose.
