  6. Bordeaux's First Growth Wines | Explained by a Master Sommelier

    5 SEPT.

    Bordeaux's First Growth Wines | Explained by a Master Sommelier

    You WON'T believe what we paid for this bottle! Master Sommelier Carlos Santos discusses Bordeaux wines, specifically the first five growth wines, while tasting a bottle of 1988 La Mission Haut-Brion and talking about its history and classification. They also touch on the concept of super second growth wines and second wines of famous Château's. Do we dare compare Bordeaux wines to Australian wines? Discuss the importance of their individual terroir. Plus they reveal the pricing of the 1989 La Mission Haut-Brion and the great deal they got at auction. 🔖 Bordeaux wines, first growth, super second growth, second wines, terroir, pricing Takeaways First growth wines in Bordeaux are highly prestigious and include five top Château's. Super second growth wines are highly regarded and often outperform some first growths. Second wines of a chateau are made from lesser quality grapes and are more affordable. Terroir plays a significant role in the quality and characteristics of Bordeaux wines.  Auction can be a great way to find good deals on expensive wines. Sound Bites "We are drinking Bordeaux wines, baby." "What are the first five growths?" "Definitely gone into the tertiary flavours, but still a little bit of fruit hanging on in there."
