I started a new thread here as the article is massive and definitely deserves a dedicated discussion:
New William Kelley mega-article on Bordeaux today - WINE TALK - WineBerserkers
However, there is one observation in the article which I think is dead on and highly relevant to this thread:
“To my mind, the strength of Bordeaux as a whole is the capacity to combine quality with quantity, and this should be the objective of any large classified growth.”
I agree that Bordeaux combines quality and quantity better than any other region, and would add that the strength of Burgundy is combining quality with perceived scarcity thanks to the terroir classifications. This means that Burgundy will always run ahead of Bordeaux in evoking FOMO and starting speculative spirals in market prices. The question to me is when and whether we will see a point where the market starts refusing to cooperate.
