Wine Spectator’s James Molesworth is in Bordeaux to taste the 2014 vintage from barrel to determine the quality and character of the young wines, in order to inform wine lovers who may be considering buying them en primeur, or as futures.
While spending a few weeks in the region, Molesworth visits numerous châteaus, interviews many vintners and evaluates hundreds of wines, some at the châteaus and most in blind tastings organized by Wine Spectator at independent locations. Below are more than 300 reviews, with scores and full tasting notes, for 2014 red Bordeaux barrel samples.
