Philippe Colin made what he described as round wines in 2011, bringing in fruit with healthy potential alcohol levels--from 12.5% to as high as 13.8% for his Chevalier-Montrachet--and chaptalizing the lighter cuvees to about 13%. He noted that there were not big differences in yields between 2011 and 2010. As is usually the case here, the malos finished early (in January and February).

Philippe Colin began on September 17 in 2010 by picking his Santenay vines that had been hit by hail several days earlier, then waited a few days to attack the rest of his chardonnay. Colin favors 2010 over 2008, as he feels that the ripening process was more regular. "The 2008s have slightly exotic noses due to the fast ripening at the end," he told me. Colin told me that his 2010s finished with between 1.5 and 2 grams per liter of residual sugar, about half a gram lower than his 2009s; that bit of sweetness contributes to the early appeal of his wines. I have limited my notes to those 2010s that had finished their malolactic fermentations.
