2011 Bordeaux Futures, Newly Available
Prices in Bordeaux have fallen substantially--in some instances, by nearly 50%. With the last two vintages being lauded as the best of the decade, prices climbed to match the acclaim. And yet, while 2011 has not lived up to previous vintages' ratings, it is being praised as "accessible", more in keeping with classic Bordeaux.
We hope you'll take a moment to browse through the many 2011 Bordeaux futures we've just added to our online catalogue. We think you'll find the dramatic reduction in pricing something to get excited about!
Cheers!

"This is a much better vintage than I thought it was before my trip to Bordeaux and could turn out to be close in overall quality to years such as the underrated 2001 and 2008"
Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, April 2012
"It's hard to make comparisons, but 2011 to me seems better than a number of recent years including 2008, 2007, 2006, 2004, and 2002. I also think the quality is better than 1999 and 1996. It's on the same quality level, or slightly less, than 2001." James Suckling, April 2012
