To say this move is unpopular with Bordeaux's merchants would be an understatement, but they are feeling particularly nervous at the moment, with so much young wine unsold, and the obvious need to reduce the price of the 2012s quite dramatically if they are to have any chance at all of selling en primeur. The dry whites, a speciality of Pessac-Léognan and Graves to the immediate south, are one of the big success stories of Bordeaux 2012 – and there should also be particularly good value to be had to the north in the Entre Deux Mers region, although these are not wines to be bought as futures.

Paul Pontallier at no less an address than Château Margaux, where he is always understandably proud of their venerable Cabernet vines, admitted that in 2012 they had to reintroduce chaptalisation, adding a little sugar to the fermentation vat to supplement what nature had provided. The plateau of Pomerol is successful, but it’s tiny and expensive. The principal loser in 2012 was Sauternes, where yields were tiny, quality variable and the economically pressed region was not helped by the corporate-owned châteaux d’Yquem, Rieussec and Suduiraut announcing that they would not be producing any grand vin. The winners were the dry whites (especially in Pessac-Léognan but all over the region), the Right Bank with its high Merlot content, Pessac-Leognan, and those Médoc châteaux with money to sacrifice quantity for quality. Without replacing St-Julien as a beacon of reliability, this appellation makes progress year on year. But much has changed since the Beatles. The higher proportion of Merlot helped as well, although Ch Margaux still used 87% Cabernet in its grand vin. 9. The bright side is that it was not a disaster for the entire region: the lesser-known Sauternes properties had a chance to shine and successful Barsac châteaux produced wines with purity of fruit, fresh acidity and delicate flavours. Last and next matches, top scores, best players, under/over stats, handicap etc. There’s a sweet but fresh, fruity quality to the Merlot, so even the lighter wines have attractive early-drinking appeal. Bordeaux, in the southwest of France, needs little introduction as one of the world's most famous, prestigious and prolific wine regions.The majority of Bordeaux wines (nearly 90 percent of production volume) are the dry, medium- and full-bodied red Bordeaux Blends that established its reputation.. Because the appellation is spread over several communes, there is much and expected difference in style from south to north, east to west, so the diversity of Margaux, often a disadvantage in the past, offers something for everyone in 2012. En se classant 5 e la saison précédente, le FC Girondins de Bordeaux participe à l'édition 2012-2013 de la Ligue Europa et commence son parcours en tour de barrages.. Tours préliminaires. In late October Julia and I attended the annual... the guide to our extensive coverage of Bordeaux 2012. In small quantities. Élevage – barrel ageing – will be key. It might have been different if October had been kinder to the Cabernets. Personally, I found the wines more attractive than the 2011s at this early stage – the word ‘cassis’ appears all over my notes to describe the Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon fruitiness.

Read the full Bordeaux 2012 reports by Steven Spurrier, Jeannie Cho Lee MW & James Lawther MW exclusively in the June edition of Decanter magazine. Sandwiched, to a certain extent, between the Merlots of the Right Bank and the Cabernets of the Médoc, the Graves is one of the oldest regions of Bordeaux and the wines maintain a certain elegance as though, being historical, they don’t need to show off. 2012 is a good to very good vintage, but not a great one. It’s a vintage to re-evaluate after bottling at this level. There were heavy rains in the Médoc 24-26 September and then there were remarkably few dry days in October and downpours in the middle of the month, so it was particularly difficult, and expensive in terms of the crop reduction that was necessary, to pick really, really ripe Cabernets, ones with fully ripe phenolics such as tannins as well as high enough sugars. The less successful tend to be dry and hollow due to the lack of maturity in the fruit. But as taster of the rest of the appellations, my top tip for value in 2012 is Pessac-Léognan. But there was enough quality here in both reds and whites to pique my interest in the appellation, so I followed this with a major tasting of less famous names via the Syndicat de Pessac-Léognan and found some really excellent wines selling for as little as 11 euros a bottle ex cellar (though these wines are not really the stuff of an en primeur campaign).
