Our opinion on the 1913 vintage: a complicated vintage but excellent for Champagne. Like the previous vintage, the 1913 wines are rather classic. However, the taste quality of 1913 wines is slightly above the 1912 vintage. The 1913 vintage wines are now highly sought after by collectors as they are considered rare.

The Bordeaux region experienced a series of misfortunes in 1913, with the arrival of insects and diseases, combined with a cool summer. The result was an abundant but poor quality harvest. The few bottles that have survived to this day offer dry wines with sour flavours.

In Burgundy, 1913 was marked by persistent damp weather and a lack of distinct seasons, which harmed the quality of the harvest. The region was also affected by downy mildew, a fungal disease that significantly reduced the quantity of grapes harvested.

The 1913 Champagnes are of excellent quality, making it a good year for the region. Yields were low, however, which limited the quantity of wine produced.

In the Rhône Valley, both 1912 and 1913 are considered poor vintages for wine quality. These two difficult years were not isolated cases, however: many French wine regions experienced weather conditions highly unfavourable to the vines and the production of wines for ageing.

   

Our advice on buying a 1913 wine

The wines of 1913 are not particularly memorable, and you would not choose a bottle for its flavour. Still, placing a 1913 wine on the table is a lovely way to honour a guest or celebrate a special occasion. If you’re looking for quality from the 1913 vintage, we recommend choosing a 1913 Champagne, a spirit or even a 1913 port instead.
