Know nothing about Bordeaux

[Innkeeper]

Hi Simmasow, and welcome to the Wine Board. For instant gratification you can try any of many excellent current bottlings in the $10-$12 range. One we recently enjoyed is Chateau Tour d'Auron, Bordeaux Superieur. Ours was a '00, but have heard good things about the '01. Search the achieves of this tread for other ideas.

For a five year lay downer recommend the current release of Les Fiefs de Lagrange. This is the second label of Chateau Lagrange. Big papa (Lagrange) and its breathern in a good vintage, need 10 years or so of rest.
