As we enter 2026, the exceptional 2016 vintage officially reaches its 10th anniversary, marking a major milestone for one of the most celebrated modern years in fine wine!
The growing conditions in 2016 were near-ideal across the world’s most prestigious regions. In Bordeaux, a warm, dry summer followed by perfectly timed late-season rains delivered wines of remarkable precision and classical Bordeaux palate-hugging structure, with standout performances from Château Latour, Lafite Rothschild, and Mouton Rothschild. Burgundy enjoyed healthy yields and extended hang times, resulting in wines of jaw-dropping elegance from top domaines including Georges Roumier and Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. In Napa Valley, one of the most harmonious growing seasons in recent memory, producing iconic, age-worthy Cabernets from California's heavyweights such as Screaming Eagle, Bond, and Scarecrow.
As these bottles cross the ten-year mark, global demand continues to accelerate while availability steadily tightens.
We currently have a selection of superb 2016s available from leading producers across Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Napa. Guaranteed to be a phenomenal experience, please do let us know if you'd like to add any wines from this legendary vintage to your cellar today!
