News — En Primeurs

The Bordeaux 2025 En Primeur campaign moved into a critical phase in June 2026, with key releases finally arriving into a market that broadly agrees on the quality of the vintage but remains very cautious on price.

Just days before En Primeurs Week kicks off, the UGCB has offered a first stylistic snapshot of Bordeaux 2025, describing it as a “truly great vintage” that combines early‑ripening fruit, density and remarkable freshness.

From April 20–23, 2026, Bordeaux will once again welcome the global trade for En Primeurs Week, where the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux presents the much‑anticipated 2025 vintage from barrel.

As the 2023 En Primeur campaign approaches, a consensus is forming among top critics, including JamesSuckling.com: the 2023 Bordeaux vintage is a triumph of "classic" style, defined by moderate alcohol, freshness, and an elegance reminiscent of the great vintages of the 1980s.
