I'm afraid that inflation is raging and nowhere more so than Bordeaux. My understanding is that bad weather last year will effect prices even more severely! Let me just say that I wasn't disappointed with this one at all! Compared with $4,500 wine I posted on FB, this was a steal=P<br />New Hampshire Winemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07111304557830665931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1402117742947814196.post-28355873735107519662014-03-03T08:56:52.380-05:002014-03-03T08:56:52.380-05:00Holy crap!!!!!!!!!! This wine is 3 digits now? ...Holy crap!!!!!!!!!! This wine is 3 digits now? I'm reminded yet again why I've stopped paying attention to Bordeaux. Good Lord. I am sitting on a nice cache of this wine from the 1995 and 2000 vintage and just slowly maturing them. I like my clarets old. This was such a great value as even back then I "played" in the 2nd growth and lower category. Clerc Milon I think is a FIFTH growth. For the 1995 I think I paid $20 on release and for the 2000, maybe $35. What in the world are the French thinking? At your top end price, I can buy 3 bottles of stellar Brunello or Barolo.
