According to Niellon, this domain produced 45 to 50 hectoliters per hectare in 2002, a bit less than in 2001. The 2002s, he told me, are fruity wines with enough acidity to give them nervosite a comment that by Niellon's standards is high praise. He's now pruning shorter, and he carried out a serious ebourgeonnage in 2001, but does not believe in green harvesting. Niellon's two 2002 grand crus showed splendidly at the beginning of June.
