1975 Vintage wine

1975, an exceptional vintage for the Bordeaux wines

Bordeaux wines of 1975 vintage are very good quality and have a long aging potential. The Graves, Pomerol, Pauillac and Saint Emilion appellations have stood out. The wines of Graves are exceptional : Château Haut Brion 1975, and Château Ducru Beaucaillou 1975, the Château LaFleur 1975, Château Lafite-Rothschild 1975, Château Figeac 1975 and Petrus 1975 are among the most successful of this vintage. The sweet white wines of Sauternes appellation are also superb, with the Château d'Yquem 1975 or the Château Coutet 1975, and Château Rieussec 1975 which are also very good.

In Burgundy, it was a difficult year. The 1975 vintage didn't have the same success as in the Bordeaux region. However, we will note the wines of Domaine de la Romanée Conti which stood out for their superior quality.
