Bordeaux Wine Basics - 5th Growth Wines (Part 1)

There were originally 17 Fifth Growth wines in the 1855 Classification system but Batailley has split into 2 wineries so now there are 18 Fifth Growth wines. Part 1 will cover the first 9 wineries They are (in order of listing in 1855, based on price per barrel):

Château Pontet-Canet - (Pauillac)
Château Batailley - (Pauillac)
Château Haut-Batailley - (Pauillac)
Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste - (Pauillac)
Château Grand-Puy-Ducasse - (Pauillac)
Château Lynch-Bages - (Pauillac)
Château Lynch-Moussas - (Pauillac)
Château Dauzac - (Margaux)
Château d'Armailhac - (Pauillac)

Couple of apologies: 1/ still got "Puy" wrong...it should be pronounced "Pwee". Also, I mentioned Clerc Milon...I keep saying "Million"...not sure why I am doing this but just something I have to change. I also got the order of the Batailley/Grand Puy wines wrong. When I merge the sections, put them in the wrong order.

Anyways, would be interested in what others think.
