The introduction of second wines - primarily in Bordeaux - was an important step in improving quality. The second wine allows the best grapes to be used for the first wine - the grand vin - whereas the lesser grapes, which may, for instance, be from young vines, are used for the second wine. The quality of the grand vin improves as a result, whereas the second wine offers earlier drinking or an option for those on a budget.
