Etienne de Montille picked before the worst of the rains in 2013, making wines with lower-than-average alcohol and higher acidity. According to chef de cave Brian Sieve, there was more hail in 2013 than in 2014, and pHs were higher in ’14.

Etienne de Montille finished harvesting on both the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits by the time it began raining on the night of October 5. Grape sugars were generally between 12% and 12.2% and the wines will not be much above 12.5% when they go into bottle next spring. De Montille vinified with a lower-than-usual percentage of whole clusters in 2013 owing to the vintage's high acidity and low alcohol, as well as to the impact of hail in many of the estate's Côte de Beaune vineyards. Except for his Bourgogne, the wines had been racked in September or early October following the late malolactic fermentations and then returned to older barrels. De Montille planned to move the wines into tanks for at least two or thee months beginning in early January and then bottle between March and June. There's a distinctly cool quality to a number of these wines but they should approach their peaks earlier than the 2012s, which are considerably richer in polyphenols, according to de Montille. As of 2012, the entire estate is certified organic by Ecocert.
