Jean-Marc Blain, who has directed this 8 ha Domaine since 1980, said that he elected to do a debourbage settling of the must directly after pressing) in 2001 because it rained just before the harvest and he wanted to be sure that the must was as clean as he could get it, even though he had already done a careful triage. He also noted that he did more batonnage lees stirring) than usual, which helped to enrich and fatten the wines. The wines were fined in July and bottled in August and September. Blain said that he believes the 2001s will drink well young and definitely before the 2000s. There is a new wine for 2001, a Puligny villages that Blain contracted for on a lease for wine basis
