Why buy en-primeur? Throughout the campaign Wine Cellar is able to offer you any major Bordeaux property’s wine at the best possible price. When the wines are imported in 2013, only a selection of Bordeaux will be available (at a retail price). Buying en-primeur also affords you the opportunity to buy wines in any bottle or case size you desire.
How to order? Respond to our Wine Cellar 2010 email offers that are mailed to our en-primeur database. Or send us a request of our favourite chateaux at any time. Wines will be listed on here. Sign-up to our database

2010 Vintage? 2010 ticks the boxes as far as perfect vintage conditions are concerned and comparisons with 2005 already being made. So far this millennium has been spoilt with great vintages; 2000, 2005, 2009 and now 2010. Increasing demand from the East has helped keep demand high and prices rather elevated. This trend is set to continue.
Once again, we urge you to send us a wishlist beforehand as our required response to the chateau offers are often limited to a few hours.
