A Bordeaux for the Loire-lover: in this cooler and less-than-stellar vintage, the Margaux perfume is there and there is a certain leanness and Chinon-like green pepper note but the fruit is all cassis. It lacks in depth and richness but it has a flyweight's tenacity.

Big earth upon opening. Decant reveal well integrated fruit. Good tannins. The wine is in a perfect place right now. Maybe slightly low on acid. Great none the less.
