The periods of rain in Gevrey in mid-August and again just before the start of the harvest here on August 30 "swelled the grapes a bit in a good way, and gave the fruit more complexity," said Serafin.He maintained that although some gravelly soils in the village suffered from lack of moisture, he had no such problems in Cazetiers or Charmes-Chambertin.Incidentally, Serafin was one of several growers who reported an attack of burrowing caterpillars that ate the fruiting canes and were yet one more factor in reducing the ultimate size of the crop.Serafin's 2002 have turned out splendidly.(Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, D.C.)

Serafin finds that vintage 2002 resembles 1999 in style, which is to say he likes it a lot.His 2001s are higher in acidity and a bit more robust, and he's convinced they will be best consumed after the 2002s.Both vintages showed well during my November visit.
