François Carillon described 2016 as "a difficult, complicated year but with pHs that aren't bad for such a ripe vintage." He began harvesting on September 20 with good sugar levels and did almost no chaptalization. I found some of the lesser wines here a bit flat or exotic, not to mention lacking in structure, but the wines had not yet been racked and won't be bottled until next April. For his part, Carillon prefers his '16s to his '15s, which he finds heavier and less refined.
