These 2011s and 2010s from the vast Brocard portfolio (which also includes Domaine Herve Azo) are quite representative of the respective years. The 2010s have excellent depth of fruit and acidity, while the 2011s are pretty easygoing wines that appear best suited to near-term drinking. In general terms, the Brocard wines tend to be pretty bold and up-front.

There was a big difference in quality in 2011 between wines from the estate's biodynamically farmed vines and the others, noted Julien Brocard before proving his point by showing me a selection of wines from the new vintage."The bio wines are deeper and denser, from lower yields; the others are a bit dilute," he told me, adding that the estate picked a little later than usual, from September 8 through 24."Especially where yields were high we needed to wait to get more density," he explained.Acidity levels in the young 2011s are in the 4.1 to 4.2 grams-per-liter range, not far off from the 4.0 to 4.5 g/l registered in 2010.I was not able to see the estate's 2011 grand crus as they had not yet been "prepared."In any event, they will not be shipped until next May or June.
