Carmine colour with pretty ocre reflections. A complex nose with notes of morello cherries and cherry pits, followed by fresh and spicy red fruit aromas. Although it leaves a global impression of freshness in the mouth, this wine is far from. lacking roundness. In addition to the red fruit, the mouthfeel reveals spicy notes and an enjoyable peppery touch in particular. In the end, a salivating final that feels like bloody orange. 2022 reconnects with the 2018/2019/2020 serial of solar, warm and early vintages. Budburst and vine growth start as of mid-April, thus avoiding the cold frosts of the beginning of the month (phew!!). Flowering follows up very quickly end of May, after a first heatwave (our team begins bow tying at 6am!!). Several heatwaves succeed one another, interrupted by rainy storms (fortunately, we’ll avoid those nasty hailstones…). Mildew is well managed this year and the regular rainfalls avoid drought and allow us to get a good harvest. The vendanges are in a hurry again, on September 1st, we start picking the well-ripened grapes of Pinot and Sauvignon.
