Bruno Clavelier was one of the first in Vosne to adopt biodynamic methods. His wines are understated and elegant, and they reflect their terroirs perfectly. He took over the estate in 1987 and has enlarged it with holdings in Gevrey, Nuits and Corton. He believes he was very lucky that his grandfather used no commercial fertilisers on his vineyards, as the potassium residue, which takes generations to break down, lowers the acidity in the grapes. As a result, his wines have levels of freshness that his neighbours find harder to achieve.
Bruno Clavelier is not among those who compare this vintage to 2020. In 2020 the grapes shrivelled and desiccated toward the end of the growing season, concentrating the elements and giving powerful wines with high alcohol. In 2022, by contrast, ripening was delayed by the dry conditions, but there was no desiccation, and the wines are fresher and lower in alcohol.
To preserve this freshness, speed was of the essence during the harvest. Bruno has increased his picking team from 30 to 50, and can now finish his six hectares in six days. The wines are indeed fresh, with vibrant fruit flavours and excellent balance.
