Off topic, but I was curious if there is a guide to rating various vintages. I am probably not considered a serious oenophile, but I do love a good bottle of wine. And I am particularly fond of Bordeaux. I cracked open an 1989 Prieure-Lichine Margaux for some friends a few months ago and it was probably the best bottle of wine I have ever had. I'd love to put away a few more good Bordeauxs away and the local store has a reasonably priced 2001 Margaux in stock (can't recall the vintner) that I was thinking of buying if it was a good vintage.
