About Us

For the past thirty-five years, it has been the charge and responsibility of The Wine Trust^® to provide the ultimate standard of care for the greatest wines of Bordeaux.

Following the age-old tradition of noble European family collections, The Wine Trust remains committed to its unique principles:

• To only purchase age-worthy wines of exceptional quality, and only during outstanding vintages.
• To purchase directly in Bordeaux, “en primeur”, from reputable negociants and merchants.
• To allow wines to rest undisturbed, under ideal cellar conditions, until they approach maturity.
• To keep shipping to an absolute minimum and then always under carefully controlled conditions.
• To only offer wines for sale when they approach maturity and become capable of delivering their most profound consumption experience, as their creators intended.

Unlike most suppliers, The Wine Trust impeccably stores and patiently cares for its wines from the moment they are released until the onset of maturity.  Only then will they be able to deliver their optimum drinking pleasure.

After many years as a private family collection, and at the urging of many friends, associates and trade members who have sampled our outstanding collection, The Wine Trust is pleased to make wines from its collection more widely available to connoisseurs who understand and appreciate the unique qualities of these great wines, and who truly enjoy consuming them.  Or to others who just can't control themselves from prying open cases in their own cellar!
