Bordelais lower prices for '91 futures a bit
Article Abstract:
The 1991 Mouton, Lafite and Margaux prices were not reduced significantly, even though an especially rainy season compromised the quality of the wines. Prices are 22% lower than last year's good vintage but still 23% higher than the 1987 rainy crop. Specific prices and wine merchant reactions are given.

Lynch-Bages skips '91 futures
Article Abstract:
The Bordeaux winery will not sell 1991 wine futures. Management is hoping that these second growths will garner higher prices later, and selling futures now would require that prices be lowered. The vintage is considered questionable.

Bordelais balk at offering '91 futures
Article Abstract:
Little consumer interest in 1991 Bordeaux is expected. The bad weather in France adversely affected the wine crop, and many vintners are not even offering futures.
