Wines of the Year 2025: Bordeaux & Burgundy

Decanter regional editors Georgie Hindle and Natalie Earl dig into all of the best wines rated from Bordeaux and Burgundy in 2025.

Bordeaux

It’s not every year that a vintage like 2022 rolls around. Despite the year’s unprecedented hot, dry conditions – including three extreme-heat events that occurred during June, July and August – it ultimately delivered some fabulous wines with freshness, charm and mass appeal.

Sure, Bordeaux has had some excellent vintages in recent years, but not since 2016 has a vintage captivated as 2022 has, with the in-bottle tastings in 2025 reaffirming what an incredible selection of wines are on offer.
