Wine vintage rating 2007

What was the vintage 2007 like?

2007 Very good Piedmont vintage with very nice Barolo and Barbaresco. 2007 is an excellent vintage for Piedmontese wines: elegant and rich in typical rose, liquorice and toasted aromas. It was a very hot year in Piedmont, with drought problems looming. Rain and cool nights in August saved the acidity and freshness of the wine. Excellent, dense red wines characterize 2007. In Tuscany, the warmer regions like Montalcino produced dense, early-ripening wines.
Bordeaux is seen as problematic, with a wet summer partly offset by a September of very good weather. The 2007 wines were left out for a while - now famous wines can be drunk very well at affordable prices. Burgundy produced very classic wines - soft and elegant.
Austria: August was very hot and dry, comparable to the 2003 vintage. Two weeks after the start of the harvest, heavy rain caused enormous problems for the quality of the grapes. Another bad weather front ended the late summer of the year and at the same time the grape harvest on September 25th.

Weather in the year 2007

A very mild start to the year. Then came a storm and more snow, which melted quickly in warm temperatures. In France, it was the warmest winter since 1950. The spring that followed was warmer than average. Heat often leads to the formation of storms. This was also the case in 2007. The early flowering was inconsistent. The wet, cool May led to trickling and small berries.

The unsettled, stormy and rainy weather did not stop and lasted until July. With very short interruptions, the summer of 2007 was characterized by cool temperatures and frequent rain. Only August and September became sunny and hot.

The frost set in very early in the fall.

Good filling levels, good wine quality

The fill level of an old vintage wine reveals important information on the drinkability of the wine.
Of course, the good condition of a wine from an old vintage depends on excellent storage. Above all, the wine must not have frequently changed cellars. Ideally, the wine will have rested in one and the same wine cellar.

But also the cork that sits in each individual bottle is very important. A perfect cork has few pores and keeps the wine stable. If an inferior cork happens to have been used in a bottle, the porous surface will begin to soak up wine and allow micro-quantities of the liquid to evaporate over the decades. Poor fill levels are the result.

A poor fill level therefore also indicates a high risk that the wine bottle could soon begin to leak.


The fill levels explained:
In the bottle neck (high fill to base neck) about 2 cm is perfect for wines.
Top and upper shoulder, ([very] top shoulder), approx. 3 cm is very good for very old wines.
Medium shoulder (mid shoulder), about 4 cm is only acceptable for rare top wines and in individual cases.
Everything below the red line should not be offered any more.

Wine rating

Do you have a 2007 vintage in your wine cellar and would you like to know how much it is worth?

Here are a few tips: in order to still have any value, the bottle must be leakproof. The wine must not be cloudy. It should be of good quality (not supermarket wine).

Search for the wine online without specifying the vintage. If it is a well-known winery, you will find the wine immediately and also the price you have to pay for the current vintage. If the current wine costs from EUR 20.00 upwards, that's a good sign.

SW18499 2007 Chablis Saint-Pierre Baron Patrick
Bourgogne - Chablis

The Chablis wine-growing region is the northernmost of the wine-growing regions of the Burgundy region. The name was very well known, especially in the 1970s and 1980s, and at that time was considered a synonym for a dry white wine. Chablis is almost equidistant from Champagne, from Sancerre on the Loire and from the nearest Burgundy locations on the CĂ´te d'Or. The cool wine-growing climate gives the Chardonnay a pronounced acidity, which the winemaker usually leaves in the wine in favor of the fruitiness. The wines are therefore mostly matured in stainless steel tanks and do not go through malolactic fermentation. The steely acidity, which is strongly determined by the comparatively high proportion of malic acid, is one of the hallmarks of Chablis and gives the white wine a remarkable longevity.

SW12900-1 2007 Riesling Spätlese feinfruchtig Trittenheimer Leiterchen Josef Milz
VdP GroĂźe Lage - Mosel

German most famous and oldest viticulture is the „Steilhange“, steep slopes along the Mosella river. No wonder that Weingut Milz can praise such a long winemaking tradition and history. Since 1520, the Milz family has been known as great winemakers in Trittenheim, a wine village in the well-known Moselschleife. Parts of the original 1680 wine cellar are today still visible. Milz’s wines are quite classic Riesling from the Mosel, since they present the ideal alcohol level, delicatesugar residue and an extremely long finish. In 1900, these wines used to be the most expensive in any European restaurant’s menu, even more high-priced than the best Burgundies and Bordeaux wines.

The Leiterchen is a single part of the Trittenheimer Apotheke vineyard is located in front of Trittenheim on the right bank of the Mosella. This region is famous for his 40%-60% incline. Soil is rocky and made up of green-blue Devon – altered slate that during the day stores the sun heat on the west-southern slopes and at night gives it back to the vine. This phenomenon allows the growing Riesling to properly ripen. The vineyard is located at 150-200 metres above sea level and stretches across 72 hectares.

SW17343 2007 Hermitage Nobles Rives
Grand Cru - CĂ´tes du RhĂ´ne - Hermitage

Hermitage is one of the famous Grand Cru on the CĂ´te du RhĂ´ne. The very elegant Syrah offers dark berry, spicy aromas with strong tannins and is very long-lasting.

The Hermitage Hill was formed in the Ice Age when the RhĂ´ne broke through this eastern extension of the Massif Central following a rapid fall in sea level. Despite its small size, the Hermitage is geologically very diverse. In the highest, western part, the soil consists of granite, which weathers into fine clay. The eastern, larger part of the slope, on the other hand, is formed in the middle by rubble made of sand and limestone that the RhĂ´ne had transported from the Alps. At the foot of the slope there are younger sediments from the WĂĽrme Ice Age. The highest points are again covered with loess. To protect the thin layers of soil from slipping, walls made of limestone were built. The name of the extremely long-lasting red wine Hermitage goes back to a hermitage founded in 1224 (Hermitage = hermit).

SW17063 2007 Chateau Belair
1er Grand Cru Classé - Bordeaux - Saint Émilion

Quality close to perfection. Château Belair is a 1er Grand Cru Classé and neighbour of Château Ausone. It has an extraordinary history: since the 15th century it belonged to the influential Canolles family, which even managed to survive the expropriations of the French Revolution. In the 19th century, Château Bel Air was one of the most sought-after estates of all, when a change of ownership and the phylloxera disaster destroyed the estate's pre-eminence. Of course, it always remained at 1er Grand Cru level. In 2008, Belair was bought by the Moueix wine dynasty (Pétrus and many others) and has since been linked to Château Magdelaine.
