the best :P
Chateau Pichon-Longueville gives you 3 Grands Crus to taste after the tour and it's well worth the 5 euros it costs !!
and the visit will be in English for you ;)

Looks very very good Raphael!

Do you mean that there is a choice of which of the 3 Chateaus to go to? How do I make sure I'm on the Chateau Lafite-Rothschild tour?! ;)

Arran, If you prefer Lafite-Rothschild, I have too options :
- all english-speaking attendees go to Lafite instead of Pichon , for a Tour in English
- Or you can join the French-language tour in Lafite

[geek alert]

Funny thought: 8-9-10-11 is that:

8 or 9 october 2011 (Eu date),
8 or 10 september 2011 (US date),
2008, september 10, 11:00 AM,
8 through 11 september 2011,
august 9th through november 10th,

or any of above permutations?

Much as I'd love a FREE tasting, just the chance to see the Lafite cellar i can't miss! (possibly buy something from the shop too! ;) ) I don't mind if it's in French or English - I'm there! 8-)

Not to complain about the food at your place Arran, but that would certainly explain your bar prices!
