Professor Rod Phillips<\/a> gave an hour-long interview on the history of the Bordeaux wine trade for Areni Global, a fine wine think-tank based in London, UK.  His interview is the sixth episode of a seven-part series on La Place de Bordeaux, the network of agents that has effectively controlled Bordeaux\u2019s wine sales for centuries.  It\u2019s a somewhat mysterious but very important institution because Bordeaux\u2019s top wines are the most sought-after in the world by collectors and investors (and some drinkers).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rod discussed the origins of the Bordeaux wine trade in the Middle Ages and its evolution. He also talked about the origins of the 1855 Classification, a ranking of wines from some districts of Bordeaux that is still very influential.  The top wines from the four producers that were listed in the first rank (Premier Cru<\/em>) in 1855 currently sell for well over a thousand dollars a bottle on release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
