The malos only finished during the summer and the wines had not been racked or de-gassed by early November. Clavelier told me that because the 2007s began life with a lot of malic acidity, they're a lot more refined today than they were at the outset. Plus, he went on, they may be expanded by the aeration that occurs during racking. The pHs in 2007 are in the 3.45 to 3.5 range, which Clavelier described as "not too high." He told me that 90% of his vines are selection massale, which he believes is particularly felicitous in a time of global warming, as the diversity of the plant material results in a wider range of ripeness and thus enables the fruit to retain high acidity, on average.
