Futures 2011

Still 80/100 wines to be released and it’s over. Already? Isn’t it too early? Well? Hard to make a donkey drink if it’s not thirsty, and still, I really believe that 2011 is a good vintage and the price we have to accept cannot be the same as the worst vintage available in the market. But only the market can control this.

There will always be wines that should not be offered as futures, wines which should wait until they’re bottled and wines which we do not have enough bottles, for example Pontet Canet...
