Ask them their least favorite time of the year, and you will still get the answer “April”.

Such a love-hate relationship is not difficult to interpret, all due to the annual hustle-bustle Bordeaux En Primeurs.

As usual, the analysis is carried out based on our easy-to-understand “5+1 conditions for a good vintage”.

Now, let’s take a few minutes and find out:

What was the weather like in 2021 and what impact did it bring?

What happened in the vineyards?
