Wine Information

The winter period (October 2007 to February 2008) was mild and dry, particularly during February when there was a significant lack of rain. This trend then reversed: March and April brought cooler temperatures, with some morning frosts, resulting in a bud-break around the 24 April. This continued, with comparatively cool temperatures in the second half of May disrupting the start of flowering. The two first weeks of June saw similar conditions, and were very wet.

Mid-flowering was noted on 13 June. The summer was not very hot or sunny and was more rainy than usual (particularly August with 91mm compared to the thirty-year average of 57 mm), resulting in a high risk of disease, and an uneven véraison (noted on 5 August). The late summer period again saw cooler temperatures. These slowed down the ripening process. There was some sunshine during the second half of September which improved the grapes' sugar level and phenolic maturity. A persistent north wind had a drying effect on the vineyard.

Vintage 2008

 An indifferent spring caused uneven flowering and mildew risk. At the end of June the weather changed for the better, continuing into July. Apart from local hail in the Côte de Beaune at the end of July, the summer began well. August arrived fairly cold and variable, but fortunately the last week of the month brought fine, warm weather. The lead-up to harvest saw sunny skies, apart from two days of rain in mid-September. A challenging vintage.

From day one the red wines have had a rich, pure fruit character with fine, silky tannins. The whites offer a good balance between ripe fruit and vibrant acidity. A vintage not to be overlooked because the wines deliver potential and pleasure.
