TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY SUZANNE MUSTACICH
A winetaster is offered a glass of a 2008 vintage of a Bordeaux fine wine, in Pauillac, French Western France on April, 01, 2009, on the second day of the launching of the primeurs campaign.- After months of gloom -- and few sales -- the sun shines briefly on Bordeaux's vintners.This week, 4,500 clients from around the world descend upon the wine estates for the unveiling of the 2008 vintage. For months, brokers and wine merchants have struggled to solve mounting problems. In recent weeks, they spent a great deal of time persuading winegrowers that the only way out of this mess was a drop in prices and to keep the selling period short and brisk.
