2011

Det ville vi købe – og hvorfor

For a fifteenth birthday, buy where the year was strong. A 2011 Vintage Port is a bottle to keep for a twenty-first or later; a 2011 Sauternes will keep just as well and is ready now. Red Bordeaux from 2011 is best from the top estates only. If the year is fixed and red is required, a Châteauneuf-du-Pape or a Rioja is the safer choice.

2011 i verden

In April an estimated two billion people watched Prince William marry Catherine Middleton at Westminster Abbey. In July the Space Shuttle Atlantis landed for the last time, ending thirty years of the programme.

De bedste valg fra 2011

• Vintage Port 2011 - a universal declaration and a great year
• Sauternes 2011 - exceptional sweet Bordeaux
• Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2011 - ripe and generous
• Top-estate Bordeaux 2011 - an uneven year, so stay with the best names
