Bringing up the rear is Cheval Blanc. Admittedly, this has been released at a significant discount to the 2007, but it is still stupendously expensive at £3350. It is a magical wine, but at quite a price. The Petit Cheval is a very fine example and at £575 certainly offers those who love this estate a better value option.

The end is nigh (or neigh)

It has been a busy day in Bordeaux and there are now just a handful of releases to come. The last big name from the Medoc, Leoville Las Cases has shocked us all with a very fair price, £895. This wine is clearly of first growth quality and the team unanimously loved it. At under half the price of the First Growths, this is a definite `buy`.
