Julien Barrot is now focusing on making two wines, Signature and Pure, with the option to make a Terroir bottling in weaker vintages, like 2008. Barrot is pleased with what he was able to accomplish in 2011, which he describes as a vintage "that is definitely about the grower and how much work they did in the vineyard. If you didn't watch your vines carefully they grew like wild." He told me that "after three straight low crops some producers decided to take advantage of the big potential yields in '11 and didn't green harvest enough and you can see it in the wines' dilution and weak mid-palate." As testimony to his confidence in the 2011 vintage Barrot did not make a Terroir in 2011 because "the fruit was strong enough not to need to do it."

Julien Barrot has scaled back the number of wines in his portfolio "to focus on quality over variety," so there is no longer a Fiancee bottling. "But who knows what will happen down the road, if the personality of the vintage and fruit suggests it's a good idea," he added. Barrot described 2010 as "a vintage that the growers loved because everything fell into place and there were no problems with the weather, or anything else, except for the low yields." Two thousand ten, he went on, was "a great, great year for mourvedre because it got completely ripe but stayed fresh, so there's excellent backbone to wines that have a lot of it." Two thousand nine, on the other hand, "was a year where you had to walk a line between too much ripeness and just enough. It wasn't '07 style but compared to 2010 it took a lot more work to make sure that the grapes didn't get too ripe."
