Question: Would you please update us on how the harvest in Bordeaux is looking for 2025?
Answer: Early days but reports are coming in about the heat and reduced yields but optimistic on the thick skins phenolic ripeness of the grapes. Even Sauternes has finished picking with favourable botrytis. It probably will be somewhat variable from property to property but 2025 in Bordeaux is showing great promise. Historically every 5th year starting with 1985 has resulted in excellent vintages. Will 2025 join that roster? Kim Mead the wine advisor for the Vancouver Branch of The International Wine & Food Society (with Alvin Nirenberg CellarMaster of Commanderie de Bordeaux in Vancouver) have just returned from Bordeaux and filed today this detailed report of first impressions here on My VanCity at https://myvancity.ca/ Check out this excellent update and stay tuned in for more developments.
