2022 Bordeaux is in clearly one of the greatest vintages of all time - By Philip Stephenson-Oliver
'The 2022 Bordeaux vintage stands out as undeniably one of the most exceptional years in its history. The wines exude a remarkable silkiness, a sensuous quality, and an impeccable balance. Forged by the influence of both heat and drought, these wines possess an intense nature, yet manage to retain a vibrant essence. Selecting a preferred wine, or even narrowing down to a specific estate, presents a challenge, as each appellation offers an array of incredible options. While these wines are poised to age gracefully, their precocious character also ensures an enjoyable experience in their youth. It is going to be difficult to pick a favourite wine, or even bank as you find incredible wines in every appellation. The wines will age well, yet with their precocious character they will be available young' Philip Stephenson-Oliver
