Jacques Lardiere was one of a very few winemakers who discussed the importance of doing a saignee to concentrate the musts in 2009. "Especially in vineyards that produced high yields, it was important to do a triage at harvest-time and to do a saignee to get more concentration," he explained, adding that he bled off up to 20% of the juice in numerous cuvees. In fact, he said, he probably should have done more in some of his wines. Yields were typically between 42 and 45 hectoliters per hectare on the Cote de Nuits. In the end, he went on, there are great wines in 2009 but a range of quality: The best will be like the '59s "in the touch of their tannins." Lardiere told me that the average chaptalization in 2009 was 0.6%; the addition of sugar was mostly to compensate for evaporation during the long macerations. Jadot planned to start bottling at the beginning of 2011.
