Domaine Ghislaine-Barthod

Ghislaine Barthod brought in another small crop in '98, with yields in the 24 to 30 hectoliters-per-hectare range, following an average of 32 h/h in '97. She describes the new vintage as possessing good freshness of fruit-"like the '88s, but less austere." After having put her wines back on their lees after the late summer racking, "now we don't have the impression of hard tannins," she says. The Barthod '97s have turned out nicely. These wines, notes Ghislaine, suffered from the first racking (prior to the '98 harvest), and needed a long levage "in order to rediscover their flesh." The premier crus were bottled last May and June, later than most '97s.
