Michel Colin describes his 2001s and 2000s as more alike than different. Both years," he says, "produced elegant, fruity wines with good length." The '99s, in contrast, are very closed now, Colin noted, and the wines are definitely for drinking after the 2000s. There was good average acidity in both 2001 and 2000; the vines were less vigorous in 2001 and produced a much smaller crop. The top 2001s were showing very well at the end of May, and I asked Colin how much of the fruit would remain after the bottling. His response: that certainly the question, isn't it?"

Michel Colin describes 2000 and 1999 as similar in acidity and pH, but he prefers the new vintage for the purity of its aromas. Still, I thought the '99s have also turned out very well; these wines track the barrel samples I tasted a year ago as closely as any set of finished '99s I tried on my late spring tour of Burgundy.
