Welcome to Episode 1937, where we present the session recordings from the wine2wine Business Forum 2023. In today's episode, we delve into Get to know Right Bank Bordeaux with Georgie Hindle DipWSET and Claire Dawson Italian Wine Podcast is proud to be a media partner of wine2wine Business Forum and we are pleased to present this series of market focus sessions, recorded during the Forum held in Verona in November 2023. wine2wine Business Forum is an international wine business event, held annually in Verona, Italy since 2014. The event is a key annual reference point for wine producers and wine professionals from around the world, providing an opportunity to network, develop and expand their wine business worldwide. About today’s session A tasting of three wines that give an overview of Bordeaux’s Right Bank for those who want to know more about this famous region but don’t know where to start. A region as big as Bordeaux, with its renowned châteaux and myriad styles can often be a bit intimidating to newcomers and wine lovers alike. There are 65 different appellations covering 100,000 hectares with terroirs, vintage variation and estate styles all playing a part. This session aims to give the audience three options when it comes to choosing a bottle of Bordeaux based on quality and price; good (affordable), better (mid-range/medium priced), and best (money no object). Bordeaux wine is known for its longevity, but winemakers are increasingly looking to make wines in a more accessible way when young - the choice that’s therefore available caters to all tastes and spending levels. Young and ‘affordable’ wines often display primary fruit flavours, are crisp, juicy and fresh and are best consumed within two to three years of bottling. Mid-priced wines are often barrel aged and offer the potential for further maturation. They will present both primary and secondary fruit flavours with evidence of oak, present tannins, a smooth mid palate and long finish. Wines in this list are best consumed between 5-10 years following the vintage. The next level of wines up, are usually more intense and concentrated with powerful tannins, larger structures and long ageing abilities. They are aged longer in barrel and will continue to evolve well past 20 years of age.
