It has been a quiet week in Bordeaux though with the releases of Fonbel and Moulin St Georges we expect Ausone to be released shortly.
Hints from Bordeaux suggest that Ducru-Beaucaillou should also be released soon: this was one of our picks of the vintage and, if sensibly priced, will be worth looking at.
The pattern of the vintage’s sales has been very clear so far: correctly-priced wines have sold, and sold well. Those that have missed the mark have fallen at the first post.
We await Montrose, Cheval Blanc, Pétrus and Le Pin.
