After a week of fog, the vines have let their coat of leaves fall to their feet.

A period of summer-like weather follows.

Repairing the trellising…

Any pickets in the vineyards that are too worn are replaced. The pre-pruning at hedge-height begins.

In the cellar…

Some assembling of cuvées : Bourgogne, Bourgogne Passetoutgrain, Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Gravains, whose bottling will occur just before Christmas… To be continued!

Some racking, barrel by barrel, for those appellations that require it during their aging: Echezeaux, Vosne-Romanée les Suchots.
