News — Bordeaux Vintages

Collector focus in the Bordeaux market has shifted strongly toward ready-to-drink back-vintages and established, high-scoring "classic" years from the last two decades. This trend is driven by an ongoing pricing disconnect in the En Primeur market and a renewed collector desire for physical, proven assets that are nearing or at their prime drinking window.

The ultra-elite Right Bank estates like Pétrus and Cheval Blanc have generally demonstrated greater price stability and higher ceiling values compared to the larger volume Left Bank First Growths in recent auctions. This reflects a persistent collector focus on wines defined by extreme rarity and established luxury brand prestige.
