Champagne producers are facing a poor harvest due to adverse weather conditions including spring frosts, hail, diseases, and lack of sunshine during flowering, leading to uneven ripeness and yield levels. The maximum yield for 2024 has been set at 10,000kgs/ha, but some areas may not reach this. However, the smaller crop is expected to ripen more easily and quickly. The harvest is expected to be late and disorganized, with significant disparities in yields between regions. Despite the challenges, producers have a good quantity of good quality reserve wine from previous years to blend with the 2024 harvest, which is expected to bring freshness and acidity to the blends.

A maximum permitted yield for the 2024 was set in mid-July at a general level of 10,000kgs/ha, which was down from 11,400kgs/ha in 2023. But with picking underway in nearly all parts of the appellation, it is clear that some areas won’t reach anywhere near that level. Speaking to Charles Philipponnat earlier this month at the London launch of Clos Des Goisses 2015, he said their estate mostly close to Mareuil “won’t have a very good harvest, in terms of volume, with yields mainly around the 7,000kgs/ha level” But Philipponnat added that even this level compares favourably with sister company in the BCC group, Alexandre Bonnet in the Côte des Bar ...
