As usual for April, Bordeaux dominated the headlines here on JancisRobinson.com, with the publication of our notes on the pre-release 2013 vintage. However, there was plenty of other content, covering Barolo, the last three vintages in Germany, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and stalwart UK vintners Lea & Sandeman and The Wine Society.
