Yields in Laurent Charvin's Grenache-dominated vineyards suffered mightily in 2013 and, as a result, production was off by a good third, Charvin told me.

Laurent Charvin's wine relies heavily on Grenache and by now we all know the 2013 drill: production was dramatically below average and there was more reliance on the darker, late-ripening varieties than usual here. Charvin believes that that will make his '13 a tougher read for a few years, but added that "the Grenache that we were able to pick came in fully ripe, and the wine should pull itself into harmony in the next four or five years."
