This is the third year of price reductions in a row. Due to the global economic situation and vintage quality prices dropped an average of 25% from 2022 to 2023. This slump continued last year with the 2024s dropping a further 25%!
Now we see the truly exceptional 2025 wines where critics are unanimous, this is one of the great Bordeaux vintages of all time. One that will be talked about for decades to come. With this superb quality and a very small yielding vintage, usually these would be priced in only one direction. But they are being released into a world market that simply won't absorb an increase right now.
Therefore we are seeing Chateaux offer 2025s at the same price or even lower than the 2024s! These two vintages are not even close to the same level. Even with the continued drop of the New Zealand peso against the Euro, that places many of the best wines of Bordeaux at a lower cost than our top Kiwi Bordeaux style icons...
The style of 2025 is also unique in a way that we have never seen before. This is a vintage of remarkable finesse and intensity, producing wines that feel both powerful and refreshingly classical. They combine expressive aromatics with deep concentration and vibrant energy. The alcohol levels again suprisingly low at just 12.5% - 13.5%, with crisp lively acidity that allows the wines to retain beautiful balance and poise. This is the best of traditional and modern Bordeaux combined.
2025 is clearly destined as an all time vintage. With genuine aging potential, singular clarity of expression, and incredibly low pricing, these are must have wines in your cellar!
