En Primeurs/Pre-Releases

What is En Primeur?

Buying En Primeur/Pre-Release refers to the process of buying wine before it is bottled and released to the market. Doing so gives you the first bite at some of the world's most prestigious wines, in perfect condition, varied formats and competitive pricing. 

It also ensures provenance and is typically the most cost-effective way of laying down a cellar. When you eventually either drink or sell the wine you can be confident that it has not spent its life circumnavigating the globe, but remained in one place. At Dunell's there are no management fees, so all your money goes towards buying great wine.

Why buy En Primeur?

If you’re interested in building a collection of fine wine, it makes sense to buy En Primeur. The En Primeur release price is usually the best price for a wine; buying En Primeur is your best chance to secure highly sought-after wines for your collection, especially if they are produced in very small quantities.

What’s more, you’re supporting the producer now, before they’ve bottled their wines. This lets them invest in their vineyards and winemaking, and in the estate’s long-term future.
