2007 Bordeaux

 

As in England, the 2007 summer in Bordeaux was over by the end of April, at least until the beginning of September. The weather dithered about from May up to the end of August. Conditions were largely overcast, occasionally drizzly, with the odd storm thrown in. Then, on the day before calendar pages were flipped for the eighth time in 2007, the sun came out and September turned things on their head by ending up the driest since 1985.

 

The white wines, dry and sweet, have turned out to be exemplary. The best dries are some of the nerviest and most concentrated I can remember tasting. The sweets perhaps fall short of the extraordinary wines produced in 2001, but to fall short of a great classic is nothing to be ashamed of; these are stunning examples.

 

And the reds? The news is far from being all bad. There are disasters, yes: wines for which I reduced the time spent in oral examination to an absolute minimum, gaining more pleasure from the spitting than the tasting. Yet there are others that have thrown up real interest. Some properties have made better wines in ’07 than in ’06. Alcohol levels are generally low, so those clients who bemoan the general global trend of rising abvs will find much to like here. Similarly, acidities are generally on the low side. Most of the reds of ’07 will be early drinkers.

 

The list below shows the wines which we intend to buy in the course of the campaign. Selling prices will be inserted as soon as the wines are released. A basket indicates stock available to buy.

 

If you are interested in a wine which has sold out, please email Victoria as stock may become available at a later date. Similarly, if there are particular wines you want to secure, please email your “wish list” to Victoria and we will endeavour to secure the stock.
