In any normal year the first weeks of January are dominated by the vast number of importer and distributor tastings showcasing and presenting the newly released vintage as part of Bourgogne’s en primeur campaign. This year, though, is very different. Any tastings taking place are being done at home, or in the privacy of company offices, with Covid-19 regulations continue to restrict the usual day to day workings of the wine trade.
It’s why The Buyer has teamed up with the Bourgogne Wine Board (the BIVB) to present a series of online debates featuring key figures in the UK wine supply chain along with leading Bourgogne producers in order to hear first hand what the opportunities, challenges and key trends that are going to be the most important for the region in the year ahead.
