Bordeaux’s wines have never lacked for attention. If anything, it has never stopped being discussed, both when times were on a roll and when they haven’t been. For centuries, it has remained one of the defining reference points of the wine world. From the 1855 Classification and vintage hierarchies to the global fine wine market, Bordeaux has shaped not only how great wines are evaluated, but also how greatness itself is understood. Perhaps for precisely that reason, returning to Bordeaux today has become more interesting than ever.
