...reveals this beautifully fresh, complex bouquet that still has serious richness and depth. .gorgeous notes of blackcurrants, spring flowers, cigar wrapper, and sandalwood. A quintessential Margaux with its spicy, complex, floral character, it's full-bodied and has a supple, elegant texture, no hard edges, a solid spine of acidity, and a great, great finish.
...powerful, energetic scents of crushed black cherries, blackcurrant cordial and mulberries...medium to full-bodied palate is jam-packed with taut, muscular black fruit layers, supported by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing with fantastic length and loads of earthy sparks.
Aromas of crushed blackberries and blueberries with dried flowers and bark, following through to a full body with a tight and powerful palate of beautiful fruit and chewy yet polished tannins that are compressed and impressive.
Warm-hearted and rich with black-plum and dark-chocolate flavors...dense tannins and generous fruits are typical of wines from this top estate.
Concentrated, with a deep well of cassis and dark cherry preserve...silky charm as lilac, red tea, mineral and sanguine details fill in gently behind the fruit. Long and very suave finish sparkles with a savory note.
...sublime bouquet of black cherries, violet and lavender, all beautifully defined and focused. The oak is seamlessly enmeshed both here and on the palate. The graphite-tinged black fruit is framed by very fine tannins and matched with a perfect bead of acidity...delivers so much freshness on the finish. Absolutely superb.
