(Decanter) - American merchants say they are buying very little Bordeaux 2011 because prices are too high for the quality - and because they still hold unsold stocks of the more expensive 2010. And in Britain, wine merchants are ambivalent but there are few who believe the campaign has any momentum: the release of Chateau Beychevelle has been met with ‘stony silence’, one reported. US merchants are grumbling that the Bordeaux 2011 campaign has not taken off because expected price decreases are not low enough.
