We are delighted to announce that the Bordeaux Hot 50 Selection 2022 has been released. A celebration of the very best of modern Bordeaux, the Hot 50 2022 selection highlights the exceptional quality, unexpected diversity and incredible value that the Bordeaux region has to offer.

The 2022 Hot 50 was chosen by an expert panel of buyers, sommeliers, educators and wine journalists, led by the new Hot 50 Chairman, Peter McCombie MW. Together, they swirled and sipped their way through the dry whites, rosés, Crémants and modern style reds entered, all of which are available in the UK and retail between £6 – £25, to select the 50 wines that most excite them.

The selection is divided into 4 categories:
