  • What's in a Vintage? Is It Really Just Good Weather?
    What’s in a Vintage? Is it Really Just Good Weather? by Susan Barbour When I made my first trip to Bordeaux in October of 2005—what was later to be dubbed "the vintage of the century”—the first thing I noticed was the light. Perhaps when you are staring down a row full of vines, you are more sensitive to the trajectory of the sun's rays, their character and the rate at which they wane. Olivier Berrouet, the oenological engineer at Chateau Petrus, grew up in Bordeaux and so was intrigued to hear that a newcomer found the light so exceptional. He explained to me that because of Bordeaux's proximity to the sea, the mist and wind effectively washed the light. But, he added, not every year was like this. It takes three essential factors to make a beautiful wine. A good plot of land with the right exposure, soil, and climate is the single most important thing. A first growth vineyard like Petrus has such outstanding terroir that it can make a beautiful wine—even in a very meager vintage. After that comes the grower and winemaker. They will make decisions about picking dates, irrigation, vinification techniques—all things which affect the style of a wine. And then, there is the vintage. (Photograph by author. Sunset in Bordeaux, 2005) As a child I loved looking at our family's copy of The Old Farmer's Almanac. When we moved to Champaign, Illinois and saw the corn and soybeans growing around the city's edges and heard neighbor's talking about the needs for or excesses of sun and rain, I grew more conscious of what it meant to live at the mercy of the weather.
