Our allocations

Great wines, straight from the châteaux

Allocations are the way Bordeaux sells its great wines “en primeur”: wine merchants buy directly from the châteaux, even before the wine is bottled. The châteaux decide which merchants receive an allocation, and how much, according to their reputation and the quality of their work.

Thanks to a large network built over the years, Planète Grands Crus has earned its place in the Bordeaux trade and now receives many allocations. This is how we can offer you prestigious wines at attractive prices.

The rare bottle you are looking for

A particular bottle, a rare vintage, a prestigious château that is hard to find: Gildas can help you track it down. Imagine you want to open an exceptional bottle for your wedding anniversary: a Mouton Rothschild 1976, for instance. Even when a bottle is hard to find on the market, Gildas uses his network to find it for you, at the best possible price.
