by Juancho Asenjo, wine communicator and humanist.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The importance of vintage varies greatly from one wine region to another, depending on wine types, styles and concepts. What do great vintages mean in the world\u2019s main regions? Should vintages be valued for their age or their quality? What is \u201cen primeur\u201d selling in Bordeaux? Why do some vintages cost more and are more sought after than others? Juancho Asenjo answered all these questions in his lecture as part of the series organised by Williams & Humbert, a winery that also holds an important historic collection of vintage sherries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
