Super Second: Bordeaux’s 1855 Classification, which established a five-tiered system of Grands Crus Classées, or growths, has remained relatively unchanged. In recent years, the quality of several second-growths has improved to the point that they can now challenge the first-growths in every way but price. These super seconds include Cos-d’Estournel, Ducru-Beaucaillou, Léoville Las Cases, Palmer (actually a third-growth) and Pichon-Longueville-Lalande.
超二级庄: 波尔多产区在1855 年建立的五个名庄葡萄酒分级(Grands Crus Classées),一直沿用至今。近年来,一些二级庄酒的品质卓越,除了价格外,足以与一级庄媲美。这些二级特级酒包括 Cos-d’Estournel(爱士图尔庄园), Ducru-Beaucaillou(宝嘉龙庄园), Léoville Las Cases(雄狮庄园), Palmer (实际上是三级庄) and Pichon-Longueville-Lalande(碧尚女爵)
