Tremendous article

I do have to say, the more I come back to this article, the more I really appreciate having it. It is extremely well written (particularly from an NPOV standpoint) and I think it is a great compliment to the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. You may want to consider a GA nomination for this one. Agne ^Cheese/^Wine 07:40, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. Thank you very much for saying so. I thought I'd go over my local library soon for a source from slightly different angle, and if I can put another layer to it maybe I'll try such a nom. MURGH ^disc. 10:16, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
