Millésime 2022 du domaine Buisson-Charles vu par Kevin Shin

Kevin Shin, un de nos clients,  a dégusté quelques uns des vins du domaine dans le millésime 2022. Il en tire un bilan qui fait plaisir à lire, au delà des scores qui sont assez dithyrambiques…

Aloxe-Corton 2022: Medium expressive nose displaying fresh red fruit, strawberry, raspberry, rose, sweet spices and earth. Medium concentration, generous red fruit, warm and round, bright acidity, earthy mineral, and a medium long red fruit driven earthy finish. (90 points)

Volnay-Santenots 2022: Upper part of Santenots with pre-phylloxera selection. I believe this will be bottle separately.  Exquisite floral nose displaying perfectly ripe pure red fruit, rose and cornucopia of red flowers, fresh button mushroom, a hint of light caramel, a hint of stem, sweet spices and mineral. Already showing beautifully integrated palate, nicely layered generous pure red fruit, silky, airy, beautifully detailed, bright acidity and mineral, and a seamless long pure red fruit driven floral finish. This is incredibly floral and refine. (95 points)

Chapelle-Chambertin 2022: Remarkably light color, 100% stem inclusion. Patrick explains the wine gets darker in the bottle. Explosive nose displaying pure red and black fruit, licorice, a hint of stem, rose, perfume, sap and mineral. Excellent concentration, beautifully layered sweet red and black fruit, silky and fluid, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, and a seamless long pure red and black fruit driven floral finish. I love the gorgeous floral nose and airy texture. 18 month elevage and no filtering. (96 points)

Chambertin 2022: Intoxicating yet noble nose displaying pure yet super rich red fruit, raspberry jelly, a hint of licorice, rose, light caramel, truffle, and mineral. Exceptional concentration, incredibly layered rich red fruit, silky and airy, bright acidity and mineral, and a seamless long red fruit driven finish. The vines from 1955. Absolutely gorgeous wine. (98 points)

Bourgogne Blanc Côte d’Or Haute Densité 2022: One part in Meursault and the other in Puligny. Expressive nose displaying concentrated rich white fruit with a hint of yellow, apple, apple candy, a hint of pineapple, honeysuckle, spicy spices and limestone. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of rich concentrate white fruit, oily and opulent, bright acidity, medium mineral, and a long rich concentrated white fruit driven finish with honeysuckle at the end. Remarkable concentration for a BB. (93 points)

Meursault Vieilles Vignes 2022:  15% new oak, from 60 to 100 years old vines. Expressive nose displaying pure white fruit, apple, pear, honey, marzipan, a hint of mint, spicy spices and limestone. Very good concentration, finely layered pure white fruit, good balance and detail, bright acidity, fine limestone mineral, and a long pure white fruit driven finish. (93 points)

Meursault Les Tessons 2022:  A very refined nose displaying pure fresh white fruit, pear, white peach, a hint of lemon, beeswax, honeysuckle, cool mountain stream and fine mineral. Very good concentration, nicely layered pure white fruit, elegant and precise, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, and a long pure white fruit driven finish with beeswax at the end. Showing a beautiful finesse, especially for a village Meursault. (94 points)

Meursault Bouches-Chères 2022:  Complex, super mineral driven nose displaying fresh pure white fruit, pear, apple, white peach, white pepper, lanoline, and crushed rocks. Excellent concentration, beautifully layered pure white fruit, cool, subtle and precise, perfect amount of acidity, super mineral, and a long pure white fruit driven finish. I would love to taste this once bottled. Excellent. (95 points)

Meursault Goutte d’Or 2022:  Rich expressive nose displaying concentrated opulent white fruit, pear, apple, apple candy, honeysuckle, vanilla, white flowers, and limestone. Excellent concentration, layers upon layers of rich white fruit, oily and opulent, perfect amount of acidity and fine mineral, and a long concentrated rich white fruit driven floral finish. This is a big serious wine. Cleary richer and bigger than the Bouches-Chères. (95 points)

Meursault Charmes « Du Dessus » 2022: Powerful big scale nose displaying concentrated white and yellow fruit, pear, lemon curd, vanilla, honeysuckle, dry extract, spicy spices and crushed rocks. Exceptional concentration, layers upon layers of concentrated white and yellow fruit, rich and oily but also cool, energetic and beautifully detailed, bright acidity, strong limestone mineral, and a long concentrated white and yellow fruit driven finish.
