2008 Ch Margaux


I tired this two years ago and it has come a good way since then. It was so very very tight back then. 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% others (I should have been writing this down and not staring at the guide).its still extremely closed on the nose but it does give you an insight into the complexities of this wine. Brown ground spices that mesh well into the dark cassis fruit. Oak is evident but perfectly integrated also. Ethereal and seductive. Great length and precision with very fine tannins. It still has a long way to go yet. 95+ Points
