1926 Vintage wine

Our opinion on the 1926 vintage: old wines and very great wines

In Bordeaux, the winter and spring were cold, fortunately, the summer was long and warm. Due to the run-off, the half-harvest of 1926 gave very good wines, sometimes above the 1921 and 1929. In Bordeaux, the red wines are of very high quality, powerful and with a beautiful color.

The sweet wines of Sauternes are splendid and reveal their finesse and mellowness.

In Burgundy, the harvest was small, but of very good quality. The red wines are full-bodied and firm and can be kept for a very long time.

In the Rhone Valley, it was also a great success.

In Champagne 1926 is a superb vintage, almost all the houses celebrated the year. Moreover, a bottle of Veuve Clicquot from 1926 was featured in the 1942 film Casablanca.

   

Our advice for buying a 1926 wine

In Bordeaux we recommend Château Ausone 1926, Château Montrose 1926, Château Mouton Rothschild 1926 or Château Grand Puy Ducasse 1926. And among the most successful Sauternes, we note the Château d‘Yquem 1926.

In Burgundy, the red wines are clearly superior to the whites this year.
