Vintage 2022 Bordeaux: An exceptional year

In this year 2022, the vineyards of Bordeaux have produced a vintage that is already being hailed as a benchmark. As a wine industry professional working for a Bordeaux trading group, I proudly invite you to discover the wines of this exceptional year.

Favorable Weather Conditions

First, the 2022 vintage began with a wet and cold winter, crucial for replenishing soil moisture after years marked by dry summers. The winter temperatures, much lower than usual, set the stage for a promising growing season. The warm and dry spring that followed allowed for early and uniform flowering, giving us an ideal start to the vegetative cycle.

Challenges and Responses of the Vine

Despite the challenges posed by early frost and prolonged summer heat waves, our vineyards have shown remarkable resilience. The vines not only withstood the extreme weather conditions but also produced grapes of exceptional quality. The few rains at the end of September played a crucial role in washing the grapes and promoting final ripening.
