EN PRIMEUR RELEASES


Buying wine en primeur


While this list is primarily concerned with wines ‘Off the Peg’ (i.e. in stock and ready to go), a very important part of what Corney & Barrow offers is en primeur.


En primeur refers to a long-established practice, originally associated with the purchase of young Bordeaux wine. Wines bought en primeur have not yet been bottled and are still in the cask.Historically the main reason for buying en primeur was to buy at a better price than that which you might pay when the wine is bottled and shipped to the UK.However, there are other key advantages: it allows you to secure an allocation of potentially rare, highly sought-after wines, which may be produced in very small quantities. You may specify the bottling format you would like; halves, magnums or larger formats etc. It also guarantees the absolute best provenance of your wines, direct from the châteaux.
