Vintage review

2011

2011 / A brilliant end of summer for rich and fresh wines

Even in Northern Burgundy this vintage was early and started with a particularly sunny, hot and dry spring except a few stormy spells in June. Conversely July was very poor in sunshine and the beginning of August was very rainy. A fine weather got the upper hand at the end of the month and accompanied the whole picking which begun particularly early at the Domain. This is how we obtained some very ripe and very balanced wines. Their aromatic complexity, made of citrus notes, white flesh fruit or apricot, is entirely remarkable. The mouth combines freshness, classical minerality and richness at the same time.
