Asi se compran en Burdeos los vinos que dominaran 2028. Bordeaux Primeurs 2025 (Dia 2)

Welcome to Day 2 of our technical expedition to Bordeaux. Today we cross the Garonne River to venture into the Left Bank, the region where Cabernet Sauvignon reigns supreme and the aristocracy of wine meets the most disruptive innovation. This is the second episode of our trilogy with The Wine Pilot, where we leave behind the leisurely chats to immerse ourselves in the adrenaline of the “Primicias.” A tour of the world’s most prestigious appellations to discover which gems of the 2025 vintage will shape the market in 2028. In this second episode (Left Bank): The myth of the classification: Does the 1855 hierarchy still make sense? We visit Château Pontet-Canet, a winery that, through biodynamics, horses, and surgical precision, has managed to outshine many “Super Seconds.” Technology and balance: We discover the concrete “eggs” and French oak casks, and learn how they protect the vineyard from climate change using kaolin (sunscreen for grapes) and chamomile tea. The Route of the Giants: From the elegance of Margaux to the power of Pauillac and Saint-Julien. We tasted at Lynch-Bages and sought out that characteristic graphite aroma of great names like Lafite Rothschild. The Verdict of the Day: We wrap up with our Top 3 Ranking of the day and a gala dinner at the Académie du Vin, where the legends of ’86 flow among the bells and the industry’s elite.
