Some very ripe dark-plum aromas with a wealth of sweet spices and earthy notes. The palate has an impressively rich, suave and smooth core of black fruit with a powerful palate that delivers concentrated and intense structure. This is superb Margaux.
This is a perfumed wine, rich in black currants and acidity as well as firm tannins. It is concentrated and dense while also elegant. The aftertaste boosts the ripe fruit and balanced acidity.
A fleshy, seductive, fruit-driven style, featuring layers of warm fig, boysenberry and blackberry compote gliding along. Lovely black tea and licorice notes gild the finish, with a flash of very fine-grained alder weaving in as well. Shows good latent depth here...
...a tightly wound bouquet, crisp and a little leaner than some of its Margaux compadres... The palate is medium-bodied with gruff tannin on the entry. There is respectable depth here...blackberry and cedar finish...
Cheesy/mineral nose with masses of ripe fruit... Lots of vigour. Lightish but good.
