En Primeur is a system that both merchants and vineyards rely on as a sort of futures market for wines that need time in the cellar. It refers to the process of buying wines before they are bottled and released onto the market. This allows the Domaine a chance to recoup some costs, and in return they offer the wines at pre-release prices, allowing you to get hold of fine wines at cheaper prices. These wines are usually shipped 2-3 years after the vintages as these wines often need time in barrel and/or bottle.
