Bordeaux: 2022 a vintage of the century?

Great wines despite great drought

26 April 2025

Preparations for the presentation of the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux

Apostrophising a vintage as the vintage of the century even before a centenary has passed may seem premature. However, with regard to the 2022s from the Bordeaux region, the assessment that exceptional wines were produced in that year is undoubtedly anything but bold. Of course, not all châteaux were able to triumph. Moreover, the 2022 was anything but a sure-fire success. The course of the vintage presented the winemakers with major challenges. However, in many cases, the result in the bottle can be downright inspiring. We tasted a cross-section of the vintage on the occasion of the presentation of the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux at this year's ProWein. Unfortunately, we were unable to observe the development of the wines in the glass over a longer period of time. In a few cases, this may limit the validity of our ratings.

2022 will go down in Bordeaux's history as probably the hottest and driest vintage to date. From May to September, average temperatures were 2.3 °C above the long-term average and reached a record high of 31.8 °C in August. In late spring and summer, the air warmed up to 42 °C over the day during a total of five heatwaves.

There was hardly any rain during the summer months. Only in Pauillac did it rain a little more than in the other appellations in June. With only around three millimetres of precipitation, July was the driest since 1959. Overall, the amount of precipitation in 2022 was between 35 and 50 percent below the long-term average.

The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that I gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitively settled — but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk.

I must not only punish but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong. It must be understood that neither by word nor deed had I given Fortunato cause to doubt my good will. I continued, as was my wont, to smile in his face, and he did not perceive that my smile now was at the thought of his immolation.

The wines at a glance

Symbols
The rating of the wine reflects the mean value from a tasting by our jury.
The wine was evaluated in a blind tasting.
The wine was tasted as a barrel sample or before an official test number (Amtliche Prüfungsnummer or Staatliche Prüfnummer) was issued.
The wine exhibited a sensory abnormality during our tasting. This does not necessarily have to be a qualitative defect or a wine fault. In the case of a qualitative impairment, a devaluation or rejection was made depending on the type and severity of the defect or wine fault.
