En Primeur FAQS
What is En Primeur?
Buying En Primeur means you are buying wine while it’s still in the barrel, before it’s bottled, and before the official release of the vintage. This gives you the unique opportunity to buy the best of the 2022 vintage, while benefitting from pre-release prices.
How Does En Primeur Work?
You buy En Primeur wine some time before vintage is officially released, while it is still with the producer. Once the wine is ready, it will be bottled and shipped by the producer. It will be stored in Bond when it arrives in the UK, which means that no UK Duty or VAT has been paid on it.
How Does En Primeur Pricing Work?
The En Primeur price is usually the best price to buy the wine. Once it is bottled and the vintage is officially released, the retail value generally increases. The price you pay when you buy En Primeur does not include Duty and VAT, you don’t need to pay this until the wines are taken out of Bond. This means that in the time between purchasing the wine and when you receive it, the value of the wine can increase but the Duty and VAT you pay on it will not.
