La Place de Bordeaux
La Place de Bordeaux is one of the world’s most prestigious fine wine marketplaces. For centuries, it has been the gateway through which Bordeaux’s greatest châteaux released their wines, and today it also presents a select circle of the world’s most coveted producers beyond Bordeaux. Each spring and autumn, tightly limited allocations are unveiled, with global demand often exceeding supply.
This release is offered on a pre-arrival basis through our International On Demand programme. We import these wines directly, securing your allocation at source ahead of physical collection in late 2026. They are then shipped from France to Australia, with arrival expected in April 2027, giving you early access to some of the most exciting and elusive wines on the planet, long before they reach the wider market.

WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS
Opus One 2023
A Napa Valley Icon, Perfectly Scored
One of Napa Valley’s most iconic names, Opus One was born from the vision of Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild, bringing together two of the great names of American and Bordeaux winemaking. The 2023 vintage continues that legacy, with classic Napa power matched by the precision and restraint that have defined the estate since its first vintage in 1979.
100 Points, The Drinks Business - "Delightful and sublime but with massive aging potential."
Dispatch from April 2027
