Reviews — Fine Wine Review

For collectors and long-term drinkers, Bordeaux 2018 and 2019 stand out as vintages that combine ripe fruit, firm structure, and enough freshness to age gracefully for decades. These are the kinds of wines that reward patience, whether the goal is cellaring, vertical collecting, or building a portfolio of bottles with future depth and market interest.

With hundreds of châteaux offering 2025 Bordeaux En Primeur, we chose a deliberately short list of wines that combine world‑class terroir, proven critical pedigree and genuine excitement around this small, high‑quality vintage—so our clients can focus on the bottles that really matter.

For our latest 2025 Bordeaux En Primeur release, we focus on three Right Bank icons from the Moueix stable—Château Bélair‑Monange in Saint‑Émilion and Pomerol’s Château Trotanoy and Château La Fleur‑Pétrus—estates that combine blue‑chip terroir, meticulous winemaking and some of the most compelling tasting notes of the 2025 vintage.

Château Pontet‑Canet has become one of Pauillac’s most sought‑after names, and the 2025 En Primeur release confirms why: a biodynamic Grand Cru Classé delivering First‑Growth‑level ambition in a finely balanced, brilliantly textured wine.
