Through our partnership with Elan, a distribution company in Bordeaux, France, we are able to secure bottles in excellent condition directly from the chateaus in Bordeaux. In other regions of France, such as Burgundy and Champagne, there are no bottles that have been shipped via a third country with unclear distribution routes, and back vintages and old vintages that are hardly distributed in Japan are constantly arriving. We don't recommend this to those who are simply looking to obtain a wine at a low price, but for those who simply want to obtain a fine wine in good condition, we can confidently recommend the bottles procured by the cepage.
