This estate started its 2013 harvest on October 3, and produced just 15 hectoliters per hectare on average. Régisseur François Duvivier predicted that he'll prefer the 2014s for the next six or seven years, but the 2013s after that. D'Angerville's Volnay Clos des Ducs is surely one of the Côte de Beaune's handful of superstars in 2013.

Visiting Guillaume d'Angerville in Volnay is a stark reminder of how challenging the last few vintages have been here. Once again, the spaces normally occupied by barrels are empty. Production was not as dramatically low as 2012, but still well off the norm. Yields came in at 16 hectoliters per hectare, an improvement over the measly 9 hectoliters of 2012, but still well off the pace of 36-38, the historical norm here. The long, cold growing season caused fruit to ripen at a snail's pace and led to a harvest that started on October 5, the latest going back to 1984. Despite poor weather throughout the spring and summer, it was the July 23 hailstorm that really took the largest toll on yields.

This estate produced an average of 25 hectoliters per hectare in 2014, which is as much as the previous two years combined: 15 in 2013 and 10 in 2012. The harvest here began on October 3, which régisseur François Duvivier said was the latest under the tenure of Gillaume d'Angerville. Duvivier noted that hail damage to the wood of the vines gave some of the 2013s a slight vegetal character but grape sugars were certainly healhy, at around 12.5% (the wines were chaptalized about 0.5%). The juice was decanted for a full 24 hours to minimize any possible hail influence. The malos here mostly finished in August and the wines were racked just prior to the 2014 harvest. Duvivier describes the '13s as having "good crunchy minerality like the 2011s but with more structure and fruit."
