Margaux, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
The most red-fruited Margaux I've ever drunk, yes! Elegant, fresh and delicious; this earned it's gold medal in Paris. Wish I had bought more.

Left Bank blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (72%) and Merlot (28%). Dark red color with purple highlights. Highly perfumed nose featuring raspberry, blueberry and violets. Plush red, blue and black berry fruit on the pallet with a touch of black tea and spice. Long and nicely oak accented finish. Medium-plus body with some power. Fresh, rich and well balanced. Drink now or hold. Thank You Keith S!

Plum and dark fruit, hearty spice and earth to round it out. Super well balanced—nice tannins.

Raspberry and blueberry, tobacco, lovely delicate minerality.

Nice, young Margaux, plenty of potential here. Needs a little time to open up but after an hour this is very enjoyable. Nose is blackcurrants, oak, vanilla and a little menthol and spice. Early on the palate is fresh and clean but a little savoury however, the fruit and some sweetness evolve as it warms up. Tannins are present but not too drying and on day two they have smoothed out. This is a good value wine, worthy of cellaring, give it five years and probably be at the sweet spot.
