Vintage Character The 2022 Givry 1er Cru Petit Marole Rouge from François Lumpp captures the vibrant spirit of Burgundy’s Côte Chalonnaise, sourced from the distinguished Premier Cru vineyard of Petit Marole. In Burgundy, the 2022 vintage was characterized by a warm, sunny growing season with well-timed rainfall, which led to ripe, expressive fruit and supple tannins in the region’s wines.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing This vintage is widely recognized for its approachability and balance, offering both immediate pleasure and the structure for graceful aging. On the nose, this Pinot Noir unfolds with aromas of wild raspberries, black cherries, and violets, complemented by delicate notes of baking spice and forest floor. The palate is silky and lively, featuring a core of juicy red fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a mineral-driven backbone that reflects the vineyard’s limestone-rich soils. The wine’s refined, lingering finish makes it an excellent match for roast duck with thyme, grilled lamb chops, or a classic French Comté cheese.
