The prices for 2005 were too high and 2006 absolutely ridiculous for the quality of the wines. I would not be a buyer of Bordeaux at all until prices come back down to 2002 levels or lower which would mean about $100 for first growth, with Leoville Barton/Pontet Canet in the $30-40 range. Otherwise I've got enough and there are plenty of minor chateau with very appealing 2004/2005 which are drinking nicely now for $10-15.

And I'm sorry I voted for Alder Yarrow. So when do these wines get back to the 2001 prices? And I’m sorry I voted for Alder Yarrow.
