Sylvain Debord, who makes these wines under the direction of Nicolas Potel, described in detail what he called the “unprecedented weather conditions” of the 2012 growing season, but added that, “amazingly, they did not affect the ultimate quality of the fruit. On the contrary, the open clusters of small berries, together with the shriveling, guaranteed excellent concentration and intensity. Two thousand twelve is so special and specific that this vintage can't, in my opinion, be compared with any other recent year; it’s a brand-new reference point for the future.”
