The 2021 vintage in Bordeaux was marked by challenging weather conditions, including a severe frost in April that significantly affected yields. A cool and wet growing season followed, with heavy rain in June and July, leading to increased disease pressure, particularly mildew. However, a sunny and dry September allowed for better ripening, especially for later-ripening varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon. The vintage produced wines with lower alcohol levels, fresh acidity, and elegant profiles, reminiscent of classic Bordeaux styles. Overall, the 2021 Bordeaux wines are more restrained and refined, appealing to those who appreciate balance and structure over opulence.
