Hi all,
Here in France we suffer through a yearly supermarket even known as the "foire a vin" (wine fair). These are often banal at best for those of use who like to buy our wine direct from the producer; but the exception can be Bordeaux, where direct sales are limited anyway.
So, having duly received the first circular in the junk mail, I thought I'd see if anyone has experience with any of the bottles that interest us. I'll include the prices in EU with the idea that, practically speaking and in terms of purchase power the EU is at parity or below the $, in spite of the current exchange rates. (The $ is always worthless when a Bush sits in the house...) As usual I hope to get away without spending too many zorros in the process.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
