In recent decades, the good years in my mind are: 6 1, 70, 82, 90, 96, 2000, 2003 and 2005. Among them, the left bank of 1996 performed well, but the right bank was not as good as the left bank; 2003 was also a controversial year. That year, R.P. (robert parker, the most influential wine critic in the world) scored high, while J.R. (the most famous wine critic in Britain) scored relatively average.

1982, more than half of Bordeaux's eight famous wineries got full marks of R.P., including Lafite, Latour, Mouton, Botus and Baima. In addition, well-known wineries such as Lion Villa and Monastery Meirong also got full marks of R.P. this year. It is very rare that so many wineries get full marks in the same year and are so widely distributed. Therefore, 82 is also called "the year of the century" in Bordeaux.

In recent years, 2000 was also an excellent year for Bordeaux. For example, among the years that can be seen in China, the price of Lafite in 2000 is second only to that of Lafite in 1982.

The latest outstanding year is 2009. In Hong Kong, the futures price of 12 bottles of 75CL Lafite that have not yet been bottled has already reached nearly HK$ 600,000.
