Prices haven’t changed much with '24 EP. But quantities are low and 2025 quantities are very low (even lower in some cases), so allocations are going to be tough. Reds were completely crushed in many cases with yields like 6 hl/ha. Whites were often down only 15-30%. Typically in short vintages like this many Domaines will release more from past larger vintages like 2023.
I’m sure Roumier Richebourg will be affordable…
I have heard a lot of the difficulties of the vintage and the low amount of overall wine. I’m curious if this will result in even higher prices on offer, or just low allocations generally.
that’s for red wine, not white. White is down a little
The Maltroye vineyard manager quit a few weeks before harvest.
The crop was sold in its entirety.
PYCM harvested his portion, I believe.
Fantastic notes as always, Jeremy. Your description of PYCM is so true. He’s earnest and very straightforward. I had the pleasure of having dinner with PYCM and CM in October alongside Brice de La Morandière and the contrast could not have been more stark. Honestly, Brice was a much more enjoyable dinner companion. I’m a massive fan of PYCM’s wines though.
What a tasting, Jeremy! Was there any word about Clement’s first wines under his own label?
