Bordeaux 2006 Investment Report
In 2006, Bordeaux overcame a problematic growing season and whilst unable to replicate the uniformity of a 2000 or 2005, certain areas were praiseworthy. Like many before, vintages that follow great vintages rarely receive the accolades they deserve. At the time of release, Parker suggested the wines were 'better than expected' and Neal Martin, tasting officially for the first time with Parker's team, judged the 2006 to be an 'under-estimated, over-priced vintage'.
10 years on, many of the top wines are drinking beautifully and we are now wiser to where the inconsistencies lie, and more pertinently have outlined a clear strategy for clients looking to take advantage of this buying opportunity.
The purpose of this mini-report is to uncover some of the hidden gems from this vintage, identifying a very select group of wines that have been overlooked, and at current price points offer consumers value for money, and the collectors scope for growth. Much has been made of the numerous 'pricing errors' for 2006, so we will take a look at where these wines currently sit in the market as well as consider the implications of a potential 10 year retrospective tasting.
