1992
The Pavillon Blanc did not escape the adverse weather conditions of the 1992 vintage. It is quite light, slightly diluted, yet its development has been surprising. We did not actually expect it to develop such finesse and harmony. Today, this wine is very enjoyable to drink—not particularly complex or dense—but marked by lovely freshness. We do not think it can improve further and therefore recommend enjoying it now. (February 2025)
Climate
After a very dry winter, the weather was wet during the flowering, which was long and uneven. The summer was hot, but August was particularly rainy, which affected the health of the vines more than usual. Fine weather never really settled in after that. (The picking began on 29th September)
