2008 Bordeaux Futures
I took a look at the long list of 2008 Bordeaux Futures wines offered by the LCBO and made a list of wines I think worth chasing/buying depending on budget and storage space.
These follwoing wines got 90-93 by RP or higher (indicated differently in brackets). The additional brackets are for potential cellaring years. Here they are (sorted starting from the lowest price).
