2008 Bordeaux wines deserve your attention. It’s not often you find great wines paired with low prices, which is you find in 2008 Bordeaux. Due to the state of the economy in 2009, when the wines were first offered, almost every Chateaux lowered their prices to levels not seen in years. In fact, based on the prices asked in the next few, subsequent vintages, the wines sold for prices we are not going to see again. The best 2008 Bordeaux wines came from Pomerol, Pauillac and perhaps Pessac Leognan.
