Have you talked to them about the issue? My feelings towards them are mixed, but at least a real person is usually easily contactable.

I have had a conversation with them every month since August and guess what the problem is in the warehouse. I assume no forumite has bought Bordeaux wines from langtons using en primeur?

That's an unacceptable response from Langtons.

I would be politely pointing out you have met your end of the contract with them and they have not, and you have made a number of attempts to sort it - if they do not deliver what they have agreed with you, then you have consumer rights and action you can take against them.

I have been chasing them on my 2011 Sauternes, probably the only wines worth investing from this vintage. I have called them and been told they got held up coming out of France. Your note reminds me to follow up again.

2011 vintage Chateau Meyney arrived yesterday- my first purchase on a budget.
Apparently badly affected by hail damage
Josh from Sydney Langtons to the rescue- thanks
