Has anyone else heard the story that a Bordeaux wine will be elevated
to 1st growth at Vinexpo in June? I can't find any mention of this in
searching the web. Does anyone know where this story is printed, its
source?

Any guesses? Leoville Las Cases is my guess.

Apparently it's an April Fool's joke, but FWIW I'd say La Mission Haut Brion
would be a better guess.
