Claude Dugat told me his Griottes-Chambertin vines produced just 25 hectoliters per hectare in 2001, with the other crus in the 30 to 32 range. The wines were racked in April and finished their malos in May and June. Dugat de-gasses his wines prior to bottling them, and he is convinced that they are frequently better in bottle than they were in barrel in part because the elimination of most of the CO2 brings suppler tannins. Dugat's 2000s are heartbreaking wines, not least because I was too late to buy any. But the 2001s, developing more slowly, may ultimately reach the same lofty quality level, and my early look at the 2002s suggests that this vintage will be especially strong chez Dugat.

"Not a lot of difference between the two years in terms of the raw material," said Claude Dugat, echoing my feeling that, in Gevrey-Chambertin at least, the finest 2000s are not far behind 1999 in quality. Yields at this domaine were similar to those of '99, and a small percentage of rot-affected grapes had to be eliminated from the village and premier cru lots. Dugat '99s are truly heartbreaking wines: utterly compelling Burgundies that I delayed purchasing and thus may never own. (Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, D.C.)
