So I went to Total Wine, and a guy working there recommended a bottle of Barons de Lafite Rothschild Reserve Speciale Bordeaux. Was only $13, not bad though. Didn't have it with a Cigar or food, just by it's self. Looking forward to trying some more types of wine in the near future.

A 2005 vintage I assume? Buy some and hold it for a while, speculators are saying that the 05 Bordeaux will stack up to the 90 or 94vintages one day, a magnificent feat if it achieves it. For the wife and I, we have a slim Bordeaux collection as we are cabernet drinkers.
