Vintage report
The 2022 growing season in the Rhône started promisingly before delivering one of those vintages that separates the wheat from the chaff. A warm, dry summer tested vine health and vineyard management across both north and south, with August heat pushing some sites to their limits. The harvest came early but remained manageable for growers who kept their nerve, though yields dropped significantly in many appellations.
What emerged feels concentrated rather than cooked, with Syrah from the northern Rhône showing particular poise despite the challenging conditions. The southern appellations produced Grenache-based blends with real intensity and structure, though we're finding the best examples needed careful selection in the cellar. These wines are drinking well now but the stronger examples will reward patience until 2028. Not a vintage for the history books, but one that rewards knowing your producers.
