En Primeur News : Tuesday, 22nd June 2010

Ducru Beaucaillou is now released. At £2000 it is well above the top estimate but it is available on open sale to all.

 

We are delighted that Alfred Tesseron has released a third tranche of Pontet Canet this afternoon, so this hugely popular (and over-subscribed) wine, with a 97/100 Parker rating, is now back on sale again. The price is £1300.

 

Leoville Poyferré have just released their second tranche and as soon as we have bought all we can, we will be able to release it for sale. However with a 97/100 Parker score here as well, this will almost certainly be available to pre-order customers only. We await a second tranche of Montrose before allocating this 96/100 rated wine.

 

Chateau La Conseillante have released a second tranche only a few hours after the first one, so we should now have enough to satisfy pre-orders and have a few cases left over. This is therefore now available on open sale at £1700

 

We are currently in the process of allocating Pichon Baron, fortunately we have managed to secure a few extra cases and can offer limited stocks on open sale at £1080.

 

We now have La Mission Haut Brion for sale at £6200 and Clarence Haut Brion is now available at £1000 per case.

Today we have the release of the fabulous Chateau Canon (the best since 1982?) at £1000 and Pape Clement Rouge at £1050. We also have Palmer at £2400 and if that price is too rich for you, there are a few cases remaining of Alter Ego de Palmer at £395.

 

La Mission Haut Brion Blanc is sold out and La Mission Haut Brion red is just about to be. We await final confirmation of our purchases of Montrose and Leoville Poyferré which we will then offer to pre-order customers.

 

There is now a second tranche of Haut Bailly available at £980. We also have small additional stocks of the previously sold out Troplong Mondot at £1050
