1996. Boom. Amazing. Full on. A wine. Way heavier than the Dom 1996. — 11 years ago
Way too young! Big tannin structure — 13 years ago
Fall has finally arrived in Texas and no better way to enjoy it than sitting outside, watching football, grilling and drinking some amazing Champagne from one of my favorite Houses — 11 years ago
Great way to finish a tasting a nice champagne blend. Opens very well, in a beautiful pale salmon color. Chalk full of fruit fresh wild strawberries, pairs, apple, and lots of cherries. — 11 years ago
Atractive nose of spices, candied cherries, marzipan and leather. A mushroomy background makes it way up along with an intriguing minerality. The length is medium -, a real shame for such a promising nose! — 12 years ago
Pretty seamless wine. Elegant but in no way meek. Represents both the style of the Chateau and the vintage well. Red and black currants, violet florals and great length. Delightful to taste at the Chateau, while discussing winemaking with Mr. Pontallier! #margauxmoments — 11 years ago
Delicious in every way. Currants, blackberry, clove, leather and licorice. Medium tannins and just wonderful finish. La dolce vita... — 12 years ago

Perfect. Sweetness layer and integrated. The wine was out of bounds with great length and it's clear this can go another 30 years. Orange marmalade with penetrating silky mineralty this wine was perfect in any way we measure greatness. — 11 years ago
