Vinous, January 2024

(92-94 points) The 2022 Beaune Aux Coucherias 1er Cru was picked just before the September heat waves and made with 65% whole bunches. It certainly has some of the most flattering aromatics amongst Champy's 2022, with...

The 2022 Domaine Boris Champy 1er Cru Aux Coucherias is a Pinot Noir from the esteemed Burgundy region, specifically the Beaune appellation. This wine, characterized by its 12.5% alcohol content and classic red color, is crafted with biodynamically grown grapes, holding Demeter certification, and is sealed with a traditional cork closure.

Vinous rates this wine highly, giving it a score of 94 points. The reviewer highlights the wine’s "flattering aromatics" with notes of "Morello cherries, wild strawberry, bergamot, and sous-bois." The wine is noted for its medium-bodied palate and "fine-boned tannins," with a finish featuring "touches of marmalade and tangerine infusing the red fruit."

Jasper Morris offers a slightly lower score range of 90-93 points but appreciates the wine's "fine even purple" color and its "solid weight of red berry fruit." Morris notes the presence of tannins that do not overshadow the "ripe supple fruit," suggesting the wine has "adequate tension" and may benefit from additional time in wood to develop further.

James Suckling also awards a score of 94 points, describing the wine as having "ripe and generous fruit" alongside "touches of blood oranges and summer flowers." Suckling praises the wine's "excellent structure of fine tannins and lively acidity," noting its "wonderful freshness" and "positively firm finish." He adds that while the wine is drinkable now, it may reach its peak from 2026 onwards.

Overall, the 2022 Domaine Boris Champy 1er Cru Aux Coucherias is a well-regarded Pinot Noir, celebrated for its aromatic complexity and balance of fruit and structure, with potential for further maturity in the coming years.
