What with hail on August 2 of 2001, very cool weather from mid-August to mid-September, and major rainfall on September 13, the fruit was not yet ripe at the ban de vendange winemaker Yves Confuron told me, despite the fact that the team knocked off a good percentage of the crop in a late green harvest following the hail. The Domaine de Courcel did not begin harvesting until the 24th, and Confuron says the estate benefitted from a major jump in ripeness in the four days before the picking started. The ultimate production was just 26 hectoliters per hectare following strict selection in the vines, Confuron maintained, adding that the yield was the same in 2002 as well.

Not surprisingly in light of recent practice, this domain did not begin its harvest in 2000 until September 19, a full week after the storm that compromised so much pinot noir on the Cote de Beaune. "The heavy rain did not really penetrate the soil," maintained winemaker Yves Confuron, and grape sugars were as high as 14% in the Epenots vines. The wines possess adequate tannins and will not require an early bottling. In fact, Confuron told me, they really need the refinement that a longer levage brings. The Courcel '99s, bottled in July, are among the most impressive wines of the Cote de Beaune.
