How should wine connoisseur choose wine?
What kind of factors do we need to count?


To purchase En Primeurs wines, we need to consider following points. The condition is different every year. For the 2014 vintage,

1. Choose your favourite chateaux first.

2. Focus on "Sure" brand like our selection this year.

3. For the consumers, rating and comments of critics and journalists are helpful. However we need to evaluate ability of those wine critics and count their preference and know how they are biased. Usually professional buyers and top critics taste En Primeurs wines at the end of March. However wines are not stabilised enough at that period. It is not easy to judge the quality of wine even for those professional. Sometimes they estimate wrongly. We are able to study their taste through their articles in the past. Besides, we should know what is their back ground, network, patrons and financial source. However please remember that critics does not have responsibility for evaluation of wine quality and pricing to the public, and they are out of real business.

4. Price of en Primeurs(first price) is decided by chateau. Some critics(actually only Robert Parker) are powerful and influential to pricing(it is not related with accuracy and fairness of wine evaluation). Many chateaux released prices before Parker Points are announced this year.

5. Another strong force for pricing is Hong Kong-China market. LYNCH BAGES, LASCOMBES, GAZIN, LAFITE ROTHSCHILD, CARRUADES DE LAFITE, DUHART MILON, CANTEMERLE, LA TOUR CARNET... etc all those chateaux were "discovered" by Hong Kong-China and given higher value. This market is driving Bordeaux nearly 10 years.

6. Today's world market situation is neutral. There is no extreme bias from specific countries. As we mentioned that Hong Kong-China is still leading Bordeaux market, but its power is slowing down moderately.
