Domaine Clerget Bourgogne 2022
A beautifully balanced red Burgundy with ripe cherry fruit, silky texture, and refined earthy complexity. Fresh yet generous, combining the elegance of classic Pinot Noir with the added ripeness and charm of the 2022 vintage.
Domaine Clerget Bourgogne 2022 is a polished and expressive Pinot Noir from Burgundy, produced by the historic Domaine Clerget family estate. Although classified as Bourgogne Rouge, the wine reflects the domaine’s traditional Burgundian philosophy: purity of fruit, freshness, and finesse rather than excessive extraction or heavy oak influence.
Made entirely from Pinot Noir, the wine highlights Burgundy’s ability to produce reds defined by elegance, perfume, and texture. Burgundy’s limestone-rich soils and cool continental climate allow Pinot Noir to develop aromatic complexity and freshness that are difficult to replicate elsewhere.
An excellent introduction to quality red Burgundy - elegant enough for enthusiasts, yet approachable and fruit-driven enough for broader appeal.

2022
Bourgogne Côte d'OrThe 2022 vintage in Burgundy is widely regarded as highly successful, combining the generosity and ripeness of a warm growing season with enough acidity and balance to preserve freshness and structure. Compared with the cooler and more restrained 2021 vintage, the 2022 wines tend to show slightly riper fruit, softer tannins, and broader appeal while still maintaining authentic Burgundian character.
In Domaine Clerget Bourgogne 2022, this translates into vibrant cherry and raspberry fruit, silky texture, and greater mid-palate generosity, while subtle earthy and floral nuances preserve the wine’s regional identity. The oak influence remains discreet and supportive, allowing the fruit and terroir expression to remain central.
Stylistically, the wine sits comfortably between the classic freshness of cooler Burgundy vintages and the softer, more approachable charm of warmer years. It remains unmistakably Burgundy in profile, but with a slightly more open and inviting personality.
