258
What is the Place de bordeaux?
The Place de Bordeaux is a three-tier, de facto system of wine production, brokerage, and sales that controls the trade of wine in Bordeaux. The production tier (château) was historically operated by the aristocracy or the church, while the sales tier (the négociant) was the merchant class. In the 1600s Dutch and English traders set up some of the first modern négociant firms in Bordeaux, and German and Irish firms appeared in the 1700s. The broker tier (the courtier) evolved in the 17th century, both as an intermediary between the two social classes and as a necessary conduit to the new estates of the Médoc, an unknown territory to the Bordeaux-based merchants who, at the time, were more comfortable buying from the nearby properties of the Graves.
chateau/negociant/courtier
259
What year did Latour opt out of en primeur?
Château Latour made headlines when it chose to opt out of the en primeur campaign from the 2012 vintage onward, but as of yet no other key property has followed its lead.
260
What type of vine training is traditionally used to make dry table wines in bordeaux? Sauternes and sweet wines? Why?
Guyot is used to produce most dry table wines
Cordon-training is rare throughout Bordeaux, save for those vines intended to produce sweet wines. Traditional in Sauternes, cordon-training produces smaller berries that attract botrytis; Guyot cane-training produces slightly larger berries that tend to develop grey rot instead.
261
why do estates in saint-emilion/pomerol have a lower required planting density than the Haut-Medoc aop's?
Right bank soils are generally shallower; roots cannot penetrate the limestone bedrock and therefore spread outward rather than dig down. The canopy is higher, too, in this more frost-prone inland region. It is a main reason density is lower as they simply cannot plant more vines due to how the vines grow.
262
What can producers do to ward off rot in lieu of using chemicals or spraying?
de-leafing, by machine or manually. After véraison, many vineyards in Bordeaux are stripped of greenery in the fruit zone, giving the fruit needed ventilation into the humid late summer and early fall.
263
what two types of sorters are used in bordeaux?
density and optical
264
When water content is too high, some well-funded estates choose to do what?
oncentrate must through other means, like vacuum distillation or reverse osmosis.

The Jalle de Breuil
266
what estate was known as mouton-baronne-philippe until 1988?
Château d'Armailhac
267
what aop of bordeaux has the most land under vine dedicated to classified growth estates?
small yet densely planted. Saint-Julien cannot claim any first growths, but overall there are eleven classified growths that now control 85% of the commune’s production, the highest proportion of classed vineyards in any Médoc appellation.
268
what two aop's share the 'grand poujeaux croupe?"
The Moulis appellation, granted in 1938, shares the western edge of the Grand Poujeaux croupe with Saint-Julien and maintains access to some good gravel soils. There are no classified producers here; however, historically the commune has produced plenty of Cru Bourgeois wine, led by Château Chasse-Spleen and Château Poujeaux.
