Bordeaux 2009: high prices risk 'alienating' US market
Jun 11, 2010 6
As American merchants express concern over pricing trends for Bordeaux 2009, a Bordeaux chateau representative says that the US market is being alienated. At Sherry Lehman in New York, owner Chris Adams says that there is 'great excitement' for the vintage but he calls the futures campaign 'uneven'. He said that some lesser-known wines that had had good press reports had done well.
'But my early feeling is that things are getting more dangerous, mostly because there are some chateaux that I would like to offer this year, but the way the pricing is heading, I might be passing.'
