Domaine des Lambrays

2022 Burgundy En Primeur

The 2022 vintage was the first to be made in the newly installed winery and cellars at Domaine des Lambrays. Head wine maker Jacques Devauges spared no detail in its construction and the results are quite astonishing. The ultimate proof is in the extraordinary quality of the 2022 wine – this is one of the greatest, young Clos des Lambrays we can remember tasting at this stage, in the 30 years we have been shipping from the domaine.

2022 also saw the return of a parcel of Premier Cru Morey-Saint-Denis vines, in the Clos Sorbè vineyard. As such, we are delighted to offer this cuvée for the first time.

Tasting the 2022 wines with Jacques, he reported that flowering was early, with good growing conditions through to the end of June. The remainder of the summer was very dry, with only 25% of the normal rainfall recorded in July and August. The result was superb, healthy grapes, but less quantity of juice than they had hoped for. Average yields across the Domaine were 30 hl/h.

These wines are offered in bond UK. Shipment due in Spring 2025.
