Bordeaux 2016 proved to be an excellent ieven legendary vintage. I was not without its problems early on in the vintage, it started with fine weather and early bud burst, then there was rain…a lot of rain. The Bordelais must have nerves of steel to deal with the variables of their weather. Thankfully the rains ceased and there was fair weather which enabled good ripening, while maintaining acidity. It resulted in wines with intensity, that are pure and elegant with a wonderful freshness. These wines are beguiling and well worth investigating. There are not many of these left but we still have enough 2016's in stock to do a tasting.
