2006 Bordeaux Futures
2006 Bordeaux Futures Offering
A surprisingly good year for the finest terroirs. “I did not expect the highlights of 2006 to be as promising as they turned out. There was little talk about the vintage following the harvest, and after the wine press and the proprietors exhausted themselves with their praise of the 2005s, there was little need to start additional speculative fires. However, the 2006 vintage has produced many fine wines, and overall, it is superior to 2004.”
Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate - May 2007.
The 2006 vintage in Bordeaux has indeed produced some very fine wines. But it is a vintage that required work in the vineyards before the harvest and some rather severe selection of grapes after the harvest. Therefore it is a vintage in which the most diligent producers made the best wines. After spending the first week of April in Bordeaux tasting hundreds of wines, I will purchase only the finest wines from the 2006 vintage to offer ‘en premeur’. Production is definitely down for the best wines of 2006 and hence the quantities available will be much smaller compared to the 2005 vintage.
