I just found the following bottles available locally and I'm looking for a recommendation. I'm trying to curtail my purchasing at the moment so I only want to spring for a couple bottles at the moment.

Which of the following wines would you recommend?

2000 Bahans Haut Brion
2000 Carrudes De Lafite
2003 Mitolo Savitar

All wines are retailing at ~€40.

Also, does anyone have any drinking window recommendations for the wines?

The Savitar is supposed to be outstanding.

I have not tried this particular Mitolo, but I am usually a fan of Mitolo wines. Mitolos also are in the $40-$50 range here in the States.

As a general Aussie hater, 2004 GAM is more than very good, it is awesome.

Thanks for the replies guys. I'll pick up a bottle of the Savitar and try it out. I'll make sure to post notes once I've tried it.

Cheers!

I have a 6 pack of the Carrudes and it is a terrific wine.
