Bordeaux Primeurs Week
The world's most anticipated annual wine event: Bordeaux opens its châteaux each April for trade and press to taste the previous year's vintage still in barrel. While access is strictly controlled for professionals, the week transforms Bordeaux into an extraordinary hub of wine world activity, and satellite consumer tastings are publicly accessible.
