Burgundy Pricing Is Still Insane — But Is Bordeaux Back? (iDealwine auction report)

Bordeaux starting to look like value. Paid the same $ for a magnum of 22 Lafite and a 750 of 23 Leflaive Chevalier-Montrachet this month.

Does Bordeaux provide the best QPR wines in the world right now?

Yes, there are very expensive wines from Bordeaux. And, yes, there are cheaper wines from Bordeaux. But, Q stands for quality. I went to a tasting about a month ago and yesterday bought a few bottles for more ordinary use. Got: Mauesin Barton 2020 for $20, Meyney 2020 for $36 and Grand Corbin Despagne 2019 to $40 (this was based on board notes and not the tasting). Next, I guess I will have to look for Pitray.
