So i'm going to dip my toes in the bordeaux game ( not for investing but for taste)
I already picked up the following just on tasting notes from my local wine store
CHATEAU CAPBERN (ST. ESTEPHE)
CHAPELLE DE LA MISSION HAUT-BRION (PESSAC-LEOGNAN)
I asked my "guy" at the local wine store for some reccomendations. Matt if you're on here .. Hello!
He suggested these as overperformers I'd like your input if possible, but i take his reccomendations highly
I do have a storage basement ( dark, below grade and far from me that I wont have the temptation to pull it out after a couple drinks in me)
I asterisked the ones that caught my eye, again any insight is appreciated. I "might" keep the higher than budget ones for resale potentially... might but doubt it.
