The Mugneret-Gibourg 2011s have turned out as good or better than I expected. Weightless and transparent, the 2011s here are drop dead gorgeous. The harvest started on September 1. Natural sugars came in between 11-12%, so all of the wines were lightly chaptalized. The 2011s were racked in July and bottled beginning in February 2013. As beautiful as the 2011s are, my sense is that they are also shutting down in bottle, so they are best left alone for at least another year or two.

"A classic vintage in which a cool summer preserved the purity of the fruit," said Marie-Christine Mugneret about 2011. "But it's not a powerful year and we didn't want to overextract. Actually, the 2011s were very much like the 2007s until three weeks ago. Now they're denser, deeper and less exuberant." Marie-Christine and her sister Marie-Andree began harvesting on September 1, bringing in fruit with potential alcohol between 12.2% and 12.5%. The malos finished in the spring and the wines were racked in July. Incidentally, this will be the last year for a separate bottling of the Mugnerets' young Ruchottes vines (labelled as Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru), as the vines that were replanted in 2000 will go back into the estate's Ruchottes-Chambertin cuvee as of 2012.
