THE IMPACT OF PROVENANCE

When it comes to buying fine wine, understanding its provenance is extremely important. Where the wine came from and how it was stored can have a lasting impact on the eventual enjoyment it gives. In a marketplace increasingly exploited by counterfeit wines, buying primeur from Justerini & Brooks is a process you can trust.

PURCHASING WITH CONFIDENCE

Primeurs are usually shipped two years after the original campaign. That’s why it’s important to buy from secure wine merchants with a long track record of delivery. Justerini & Brooks customers can be reassured; purchasing from us is consistently secure and efficient.


A NOD TO THE PAST

PAST VINTAGE REPORTS

BORDEAUX 2021: VINTAGE REPORT

After two years tasting in gardens and via zoom, our recent primeurs trip marked a welcome return to Bordeaux. In truth, we had no expectations about this vintage. Unusually, chateaux have been playing their cards close to their chests, so we approached with no preconceptions.

GERMANY 2020: VINTAGE REPORT

Dorothee Zilliken summed it up best when she said that “the 2020 vintage is like opening the window in the morning during a long hot summer and breathing in the cool, fresh air”.

Rhône 2020: Vintage Report

For the charm, balance and youthful beauty of its wines, 2020 is an unmissable vintage. Overall, it was a sunny year characterised by drought and a good-sized crop (for the majority of producers), with less extreme heat and higher yields than its predecessor, 2019.

Burgundy 2020: Vintage Report

2020 is a vintage of records and surprises. Most wine-growers had never known such early picking dates – the very first pre-harvests beginning on the 17th August - whilst for the majority of Domaines it was certainly the first time a vintage had started and ended in August.

PIEDMONT 2018: VINTAGE REPORT

A week of tasting the new releases in Piedmont at some of region’s best addresses revealed a 2018 vintage that is seductively charming and instantly likeable.
