Margaux, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
From magnum, the nose of the night, this was pure and opulent, an enthralling perfume of florals, cherry, currants, sandalwood, and light toast. The palate was textbook Margaux, showing a feminine side that was medium to full bodied, wonderful balance and a long finish that sails along gracefully.

2006, bright red fruit almost vibrant approach. Mineral finish, but disappointingly quick finish

A restrained Margo, beautiful balance, lighter-bodied than expected. Have not had many 06 Bdx.

Beautiful example of Chateaux Margaux. Half bottle of ‘06 is very approachable now. Soft, elegant, wonderful
