Langton's En Primeur - How to purchase en primeur

2009 Bordeaux Offer


Bordeaux 2000 - Great, 2005 - Greater, 2009 - Greatest?

"2009 is being hailed as a great 'solar' vintage. After a harsh, cold winter, the weather warmed up with dry, sunny, warm days in March and early bud burst. This vintage will be remembered for very high quality, high yields (actually double the norm) and ease of harvest – a one in thirty year event. I would imagine this will be a very top year." Andrew Caillard MW

"2009 is an incredibly exciting vintage of opulence, power, and richness, yet the better wines have a precision and delicacy that is unprecedented. There will be worldwide demand – that is assured." Robert Parker Jr.

“I have never given so many really high scores when tasting en primeur anywhere. There are some truly stupendous wines.” Jancis Robinson MW

How to Order


'En Primeur' is the French term for buying wine as 'futures': paying for wine before it is released onto the market in order to secure wines that are in short supply or are at an advantageous price. En Primeur wines are offered at first release price and are therefore at the lowest possible price. These wines have a limited availability. Provenance is guaranteed.
