Enologist Eric Germain reported that the harvest here was on the late side, with pinot noir on the Cote de Beaune picked between September 2 and 5, and the grand crus of the Cote de Nuits coming in between September 8 and 14.Grape sugars were 12.5% and up (more like 13% for the grand crus), and the 2011s were not chaptalized, according to Germain.Girardin carried out two sortings, the first one in the vines, and the second "optically, by machine" after the fruit had been 100% destemmed.About 15% rotten and underripe grapes from Cote de Beaune vineyards were eliminated, and about 10% from the Cote de Nuits, he noted."In pH, fruit and vivacity, the wines are very close to the 2010s," said Germain, who added that he did a very light extraction, with just one or two pigeages at the beginning of the fermentation, then only remontage afterwards.
