"A fine, good year, but not as consistent as 2008" was the way Pernot described 2009. The harvest brought a generous crop at this estate, except in Batard-Montrachet. But Pernot sees 2008 as "la grande annee de garde" here. He picked very late in 2008, getting very concentrated grapes and high sugars and tossing out a percentage of rotten grapes. The malos, which usually finish very early here (the '09s were done by January), were the latest ever, ending in July. (Louis/Dressner Selections, New York, NY; Robert Chadderdon Selections, New York, NY; also brought into the U.S. as a Peter Vezan Selection and through Domaines et Saveurs/Jeanne-Marie de Champs)
