RATINGS

91+ Stephen Tanzer

Deep, brooding aromas of blueberry, mulberry, tobacco, mint and pepper. Deep and sweet, with ripe mulberry and raspberry fruit nicely supported by a firm mineral underpinning.

90+ Robert M. Parker Jr.

Complex notes of sweet red and black fruits, unsmoked cigar tobacco, spice box and a hint of very subtle wood... followed by a dark ruby/plum-colored wine with beautifully sweet tannins, a silky, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel

The Margaux appellation includes vineyards around the village of Margaux and the villages of Arsac, Cantenac, d’Issan, Labarde and Soussans.
