Enologist Eric Germain described 2012 as "a fabulous vintage, too easy." Yields were low and skins were ripe, he told me, and he vinified with about 50% whole clusters (in contrast to 2013, when the grapes were "almost ripe" and Germain used only around 10% whole clusters). "The 2012 vintage is magic, and the wines will last a long time," he concluded. As I noted in my report on the 2013s, Girardin did not purchase Clos-Vougeot or Charmes-Chambertin grapes in 2012 owing to the high prices for this fruit.

Enologist Eric Germain carried out three triages in 2012, including one on a vibrating table to eliminate the dried berries, in order to make Cote de Beaune wines with no hint of hail.The malos were finished during the first three months of 2013 but the wines had not yet been racked in November.Germain destemmed all the fruit in 2012 and carried out a one-week cold soak.He then punched down the cap three times a day at the beginning of the fermentation but relied mostly on remontage.He used roughly 30% new oak across the board.Incidentally, Girardin did not purchase Charmes-Chambertin or Clos Vougeot fruit in 2012 due to the high price of the grapes.
