1997 vintage. A nice surprise in a vintage that was not highly regarded. Today, the 1997 outshined the 2000 La Tour de Bessan. Wonderful tasting with Marie-Laure Lurton, who kindly opened older vintages of La Tour de Bessan and Villegeorge. Unfortunately the 1961 Villegeorge was corked but one could tell the structure of the wine,it should be great from a good bottle. — 3 days ago

Medium deep ruby , thin garnet rim . Quite toasty blackberry and cassis , spicy with touches of coffee and Cacau, earthy notes . On the palate this has quite good rounded blackberry and spicy blackcurrant , dried cherry on the palate, quite sweet fruit profile , with a toasty , coffee tinged finish . Ok acidity , slightly warming alcohol and quite rounded tannins . Drinking well now and will continue to show well over the next 5-10 years . Quite a good example from this vintage for a second wine , juicy and fun to drink — 20 days ago

2021 vintage. A good example of a charming 2021 Margaux, that can be enjoyed now or for at least 10 years. — 3 days ago

Oouh, the 2006 is drinking so nicely now!
Classic left bank nose, with black currant, damson plum, cedar wood, but also some wet earth & turned leaves creeping in. And just a hint of cigar. Savoury, juicy, enticing.
Medium bodied on the palate, with beautiful purity & nice depth, the tannins dusty fine, mellowing already, the acidity adding a juicy kick. Savoury, poised with quite some elegance and huge drinkability.
Exactly what I imagine when I think of a left bank Bordeaux.
Drinking beautifully right now & quite delish! — 20 days ago

Smoky, autumnal and generous. A remarkable effort for 2002!

Gorgeous but embryonic. Cassis and florality. Tweed jacket. Stunning florals. Tree bark. Desiccated leaves. Palate is round and wonderful but closed. This is so good and soooooo young. 9.7 on potential. — 13 days ago

Lovely after 2 hours open. Balanced black fruit, tannins under control. Clearly has a long way to go but it’s drinking well. My first #secondgrowth — 19 days ago
