RATINGS

93Vinous / IWC

...has a fragrant, floral bouquet with wilted rose petals infusing the lively red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit...palate is slightly honeyed in texture, saturated tannins, a mixture of red and black fruit commingling with white pepper and iodine. Great persistence and salinity on the finish...

93Jeb Dunnuck

...lots of red and black fruit as well as notes of cedar, smoke tobacco, and chocolate...has perfectly integrated oak, ripe, fine-grained tannins, and outstanding overall balance.

92-93James Suckling

...blackcurrant, walnut and some graphite...medium-to full-bodied with a solid core of tannins and fruit. Some lead pencil.

91The Wine Advocate

...has turned out nicely, bursting with aromas of cherries, berries and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and ample palate.

16.5Jancis Robinson

Fragrant, lightly leafy. Leafy/lead pencils on the palate, slightly chalky tannins, a bit stone-dusty. Light, dry, fine-boned. Scented on the finish.

REGION

France, Bordeaux, Margaux

Margaux is one of Bordeaux’s most famous appellations and also one of its largest, with about 3,400 acres of vineyards. Located on the Left Bank of the Gironde River, Margaux has the greatest number of classified-growth châteaux (or crus classé) according to the 1855 classification. There are twenty-one crus classé, including the most famous estate, the first growth Château Margaux. The Margaux appellation includes vineyards around the village of Margaux and the villages of Arsac, Cantenac, d’Issan, Labarde and Soussans. Wines from the best Margaux châteaux and vintages are prized for their perfumey fragrance and elegant, silky mouthfeel. Margaux wines are predominately Cabernet Sauvignon blended with Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.
