La Grande Dégustation des Primeurs - Edition 2026 is organised by Terre de Vins in partnership with 1Jour1Vin, bringing together the most prestigious Bordeaux estates for an exceptional evening dedicated to the upcoming vintage.
This is a rare opportunity to taste barrel samples of the 2025 Bordeaux vintage directly from the cellars, before the wines are even bottled. Sommeliers, wine lovers and fine dining enthusiasts gather in an elegant Parisian setting to discover the future grands crus.
Throughout the evening, guests move freely between producer stands, engaging directly with winemakers and estate owners. The format blends the spirit of a professional tasting with the warmth of a festive reception, making it accessible to both connoisseurs and curious newcomers.
The primeur system is a cornerstone of the Bordeaux wine trade. Each spring, estates open their cellars for tastings of wines that will not be bottled for another 18 to 24 months. La Grande Dégustation Primeurs offers the general public a unique window into this traditionally closed world.
