After a particularly mild February, March continued mild with very wet conditions. April brought two nights of frost and a first, minor episode of hail, before a very heavy hailstorm struck the Chablis vineyards on 1 May, severely affecting the left bank. May and June saw fluctuating temperatures that slowed flowering, while alternating rain and thunderstorms led to high mildew pressure.

Harvest began on 20 September in good conditions, with a larger team of 220 pickers bringing everything in within three and a half days.
