    The 2022 Ladoix Les Joyeuses Premier Cru Rouge from Philippe Pacalet demonstrates the potential of this lesser-known premier cru while showcasing Pacalet's minimal intervention approach.

    The nose is bright and expressive, offering fresh red fruits - particularly cherries and wild raspberries - complemented by subtle spice notes and a distinct mineral character that reflects the site's limestone-rich soils. The aromatic profile shows both the ripeness of the warm 2022 vintage and the natural freshness Pacalet achieves through gentle handling.

    On the palate, the wine displays good concentration while maintaining energy and precision. The texture is refined and focused, with fine-grained tannins providing elegant support to the pure fruit core. The limestone terroir contributes a precise mineral tension, while the warmth of 2022 brings welcome ripeness. The finish is long and detailed, with fruit and mineral notes carrying through.

    This wine captures both the distinctive character of Les Joyeuses and Pacalet's commitment to transparent, terroir-driven winemaking in what proved to be an excellent vintage.
