HiteJinro Launches Two Exclusive Bordeaux Premium Chateau Wines

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] Two historic premium Ch?teau wines from Bordeaux, France, will be sold exclusively.

HiteJinro announced on the 31st that it will exclusively sell ‘Ch?teau Batailley Pauillac Grand Cru Class?’ and ‘Ch?teau du Domaine de l'?glise Pomerol’ from Borimanu in Bordeaux, France.

Generally, wines are parallel imported and sold to various importers in each country through n?gociants (wine wholesalers), but the Bordeaux premium wines imported this time will be exclusively launched in Korea through direct transactions between the producer Borimanu and HiteJinro.

Founded in 1870, Borimanu is a winery that owns more than 10 ch?teaux (vineyards and wineries) in Bordeaux, France. Exporting to over 90 countries worldwide, Borimanu is one of the largest family-run wineries in France and is also a historic producer.

The newly released ‘Ch?teau Batailley Pauillac Grand Cru Class?’ was classified as a 5th growth ch?teau in 1855 when the Grand Cru Class? (a classification of Bordeaux’s top-quality vineyards producing premium wines) was designated. It is produced from the most representative and historic vineyard owned by Borimanu. The Pauillac region is one of the areas producing high-quality wines known as the five great ch?teaux. The gravelly vineyards have excellent drainage, making them ideal for producing perfect Cabernet Sauvignon wines. Renowned wine critic Robert Parker gave the 2014 vintage of Ch?teau Batailley Pauillac 91+ points, and James Suckling gave it 94 points.

‘Ch?teau du Domaine de l'?glise Pomerol’ is the oldest ch?teau and vineyard in the Pomerol region. Although Pomerol is the smallest wine-producing area in Bordeaux, it is famous for producing wines of the highest quality and rarity. Robert Parker awarded the 2014 vintage 90 points, and James Suckling gave it 93 points.

The two Bordeaux premium Ch?teau wines will be sold respectively through wine shops located in Shinsegae Department Store Main Branch, Hyundai Department Store Pangyo Branch, Hyundai Department Store Mokdong Branch, and Hyundai Premium Outlet Songdo Branch.
