There were two generations of flowers in 2002," said Pascal Lachaux, "and the second one was all millerande We did a green harvest on the larger first generation fruit, and ended up with a crop level of just 35 to 38 hectoliters per hectare, or about 12% to 15% lower than in 2001.This helped to give more fat, color, ripeness and concentration."Lachaux did a week-long cold maceration at a chilly 5oC prior to the beginning of the fermentations.The wines that were not racked until July will probably not be bottled until the early spring of 2004, said Lachaux, while those that were racked in the spring of 2003 will be bottled earlier.Lachaux referred to his 2002s as "my best vintage yet for fat, richness and balance."(Represented by Russell Herman, Berkeley Heights, NJ; importers include V.O.S.
