Grimacing, gnashing of teeth and condolence messages on social networks ... started in 2016 under auspices of worrying. This last week of April is very tense in the vineyards of the Yonne and Cote d'Or. Two frost-free nights were recorded. The most virulent was found this morning, April 27th.
Some Chablis winemakers have spent the night in their vineyards to trigger heaters systems and water spray. The temperature dropped to -3 ° and extensive damage is to be feared.
Further south, Côte de Nuits, the concern that the harvest is well underway here too palpable.
"We were touched in Bonnes Mares, the Clos de la Roche and in some areas at the bottom of Morey-Saint-Denis. It's always a bit complicated to get an idea of the damage that day. We will do a full point in the coming days. In the meantime, try not to be too undermine morale ... "said Jéremy Seysses Domain Dujac in Morey-Saint-Denis.
The thermometer is lowered into the negative in many sectors in Côte de Beaune. Temperatures that caused white frost on a large part of the vineyard.
"I just returned from a tour of two hours in the vineyards: Santenay is not or little affected, Puligny is doing well too. By against Chassagne-Montrachet and Saint-Aubin are achieved. It is difficult to estimate the damage. In the same piece, the top may be affected but not down ... It will also see if the vegetation will grow back will be fruitful or not, "says Thomas Morey grower in Chassagne-Montrachet.
Meursault seem to have also paid a heavy price. Some winemakers fear that much of the harvest is lost.
A few days earlier, on 13 April, are early hailstorms that affected the Mâconnais. The phenomenon has surprised the producers in its scope and especially its precocity. The estimates are that 2,000 hectares affected. Hail fell down for twenty minutes including the municipalities of Chasselas, Leynes, Prissé, Davayé, Chaintré, Hurigny, Macon. Beaujolais north was hit also.
Large hailstones like thumb destroyed the tender young shoots. An impact on the future harvest is already expected but again its extent is difficult to evaluate: the producers talk about the parcels less than 10%, but other more than 70%.」
