    Great vid. So I had that last wine you showcased. It was a gran cru classe from Château Prieure Lichine , Margaux … 1978. That was one that appreciated, I’d say although I’m no somm. But I did subscribe.

    Any thoughts about Demazel Bordeaux Superieur? I bought two 2018 bottles at a supermarket for less than PHP300 each ($6 or depends on the current exchange rate).
    For me, it’s bit strong but has a balanced taste.

    Concern for vintages is completely ovlerblown.
    Vintages mattered in the old days when vintners were at the mercy of Mother Nature for the quality of their wine, especially in European climates. Nowadays, not so much, thanks to modern winemaking technology. So much now is controlled, measured, adjusted, and blended with scientific precision.
    The majority of Bordeaux is for every day drinking and is consumed within a few years or sooner, even by the French. Vintage variation is for those in the wine trade and the occasional serious aficionado. Yes, it matters for the First Growths, etc., but readers of this channel will never buy those.
