Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend

Lean iodine, green peppers with subtle hint of well worn leather, blackberry and cassis. Body is lean and aged but still enough softened tannin to keep the wine lively and wonderful soft lingering soft finish.

Woah best of tonight's trio, gracefully aged. Everything I want in vintage Bordeaux. Leather, bell pepper, hints of pepper and spice. Elegant finish. Oh lord this bottle went too fast

Tabacco!

A really lovely wine showing hints of eucalyptus, currants, wet dirt and moss. Over the course of a few hours the tannins calmed and the wine hit an elegant stride. I was surprised to see so much new oak which is my only criticism as it was a dominate feature through the entire bottle. Wish I had a more of this.

2014 vintage. More oak and body than initially suspected. Medium body (but heavy for Margaux). A little rambunctious (almost Napaesque) but delicious and fat now. Concentrated chocolate and plummy finish.

Classic left bank.

Soft but good acidity. Beautiful.

For the best taste, decant for at least 3 hours

Great spice, wonderfully complex bouquet (very forward with fresh cranberry and cherry notes)
