Bordeaux debate of the day...

[hotwine]

Do a search on my username in this thread and you'll see the ones I've tried from '00, '01 and '02. I've not tried enough of any of them to generalize; each vintage has had its winners with me. As to which will keep the longest in cellar? We won't really know until we try them a decade or so from vintage; and sampling at a rate of one bottle every six months means I'll likely be finishing off a case more or less as it reaches its peak (although some are bound to mature earlier and some later).

I'm no longer buying '00s, but snag the '01s and '02s from St Julien, St Emilion and Paulliac when available at attractive prices.
