The yield here was a low 34 hectoliters per hectare in 2007, according to manager Thomas Duroux, because the team cut off the less-ripe clusters. Even then, said Duroux, there were big differences in ripeness from block to block and thus the harvest took place over a full four weeks, the longest ever at this estate. Duroux describes 2007 as "not a powerful vintage. We have good but not powerful tannins, and average acidity. We were very careful not to make a wine too high in alcohol." In fact, the alcohol level is a modest 12.5%, following a bit of vacuum evaporation for a few tanks.
