Domaine Tortochot Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2022
Vintage Character
Domaine Tortochot Clos Vougeot Grand Cru 2022 comes from one of Burgundy’s most historic Grand Cru enclosures, the walled Clos de Vougeot in the Côte de Nuits. The 2022 vintage is widely regarded as strong in Burgundy: a warm, sunny growing season brought generous ripeness, while timely freshness in the fruit helped preserve balance and definition. Within this vast but highly nuanced climat, clay-limestone soils and subtle variations in exposition give Clos Vougeot its trademark combination of breadth, depth, and firm architectural structure, and Tortochot’s parcel translates that pedigree into a wine of both power and finesse.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
On the nose, this Pinot Noir opens with dark cherry, wild raspberry, rose petal, and violet, layered with discreet spice, cedar, and a gentle earthy note. The palate is concentrated yet finely proportioned, with supple fruit at the core, energetic acidity, and polished tannins that carry into a long, savoury finish marked by mineral tension. Its Grand Cru stature shows in the wine’s textural amplitude and persistence rather than sheer weight. Pair it with duck breast with cherry jus, roast saddle of lamb, or mushroom risotto for a particularly harmonious match.
Winery Background
Based in Gevrey-Chambertin, Domaine Tortochot is a long-established family estate now led by Chantal Tortochot, whose tenure has sharpened the domaine’s reputation for precision and purity. The vineyards are farmed organically, with certification achieved in 2013, reflecting a philosophy that favours healthy soils and transparent site expression. In the cellar, the approach is classical and measured, with hand-harvested fruit, careful élevage in French oak, and a style that resists excess in favour of clarity, structure, and age-worthy Burgundian nuance.
