Detail from the gates@Latour – will these grapes ripen before 1855 delivers all of its customers' en primeurs?

Grapes in the Médoc August 2008

Château Sociando-Mallet (Haut-Médoc) has refused to have any dealings with 1855 (1855.com) since the 2007 vintage. Furthermore they deplore the company's business practices and their lack of professionalism. 

In response to a letter from an aggrieved 1855 client (NP), who is awaiting delivery of his 2008 en primeur, Pascale Roby, the château's commercial and administrative representative pulls no punches:    

'Cher Monsieur,

Nous avons cessé toute collaboration directe avec la société1855 depuis le millésime 2007 en raison des divers problèmes de livraison signalés par les acheteurs de nos vins. Cette société continue à proposer du Sociando-Mallet en primeur chaque année car elle doit trouver un approvisionnement sur la place de Bordeaux. Nous déplorons le manque de professionnalisme de la société 1855 qui, bien que finissant toujours je crois par livrer les vins dus, ne respecte pas ses engagements envers ses clients en terme de délai. 

Nous vous remercions en, tout cas de 
nous tenir informés de la suite qui sera donnée à votre commande.

Avec nos très sincères salutations,

Pascale Roby
