This year [2010 vintage] we have had a handful of wish lists from customers, despite the good reviews. Last year we had thousands. Here we are, it&#8217;s the 6th June, and most of the prices haven&#8217;t come out. If they come out at too high a price it will stall.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>He points out that the 2009s haven&#8217;t increased in price since release. &#8216;About six wines have appreciated in value; the rest are the same.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was speaking to a leading UK wine merchant yesterday who had some interesting opinions on the 2010 Bordeaux en primeur campaign.
