Bordeaux struggles in 2004

Article Abstract:

The vintage quality in 2004 is inconsistent and that the wines will be very difficult to sell especially following the spectacular 2003 vintage. Latour and Leoville Las Cases on the Left Bank, Cheval-Blanc, Lafleur and Vineux-Chateau-Certan on the Right Bank are the only five red wines that have earned potentially classic scores (95-100 on the Wine Spectator 100-point scale).
