Château Margaux
Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend
Margaux, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
3rd wine . Medium ruby garnet slightly brighter in colour . Lighter garnet ruby rim . Slightly deeper more meaty, herbal in character , more red fruits with cassis , cool blackberry. On the palate this is denser and more saline , quite good dark cassis and tobacco notes, with some red plum too . Lightly grippy tannins , slightly clipped finish , cool saline freshness . A little below the others in length and intensity . From now but will last over the next 10 years or so . Thought this was the Latour , oh dear .

Beautiful example of Chateaux Margaux. Half bottle of ‘06 is very approachable now. Soft, elegant, wonderful

Gorgeous Bordeaux. Ripe blackberry and marzipan nose with oolong tea notes. Hint of stylistic Brett very delicately handled.
