Bordeaux 2012 is turning out to be 'better and cheaper' than 2011, according to many. Will you buy?

Yes - finally a vintage that I may be able to afford (31 vote, 32%)
No - Bordeaux left me behind years ago (27 vote, 28%)
Probably not - I'd rather buy vintages already on the market that offer better value (40 vote, 41%)
