The 1954 vintage
The 1954 vintage was generally difficult in France with a rainy spring and summer and a late flowering. In Bordeaux and the Rhône Valley, the harvest was particularly complicated with heavy rains finally yielding meagre wines, of which very few have survived. Thanks to a warm month of October, the wines of Burgundy were a little more successful, although with very large differences in quality depending on the appellation and the estate. Some of the great Champagne houses have also produced beautiful vintage vintages. However, all these wines are uneven and there is a great risk of being disappointed when tasting them.
In France, it is finally to Roussillon that we must turn: the great wines of Rivesaltes and Maury still offer, in this 1954 vintage, very beautiful sensations. Elsewhere, Port wines and wines from northern Italy, Piedmont in particular, offer great successes.
