About this Event
This vintage that is quickly earning a thoughtful second look and, in many cases, stronger critic scores. Once underestimated due to challenging growing conditions, 2021 has emerged as a compelling expression of winemaker skill, where precision in the cellar transformed adversity into wines of balance, freshness, and nuance.
This tasting will be led by Zachys experts, who will guide you through the vintage’s defining characteristics and evolving critical reception. You’ll explore a lineup of standout estates that exemplify the best of the year, including Vieux Château Certan, Canon, Rauzan-Ségla, and Montrose. Together, these wines reveal a more classical Bordeaux profile: lower alcohol, higher acidity, and an elegant restraint reminiscent of pre-modern styles.
Our team will speak to why recent re-evaluations and improved scores have renewed interest in the vintage, and how discerning collectors can identify the true standouts nestled between the blockbuster 2020 and 2022 releases. Whether you’re tasting with an eye toward collecting, investing, or simply deepening your understanding of Bordeaux, this event offers a rare opportunity to experience a misunderstood vintage coming into its own.
