Picked up soem CdP last night in the bin ends!

2001 CdP "Pontifical" for $13.00 a bottle. It's an OK CdP, that is fully mature already. More fruit driven than most. I'd give 86 points, but to drink mature CdP at $13 is a no brainer.

Also picked up 2000 Medoc "Deux de Moulins" for $14; haven't tried it yet, but should be drinking perfect right now. The average Bordeaux stuff from 2000 should be considered open game right now. I'd still hold off on the 1st-2nd growths if possible.
