"This score is incredible for this vintage. The bottle showed very well - better than in Paris 12 months ago. Is it attributable to a longer decant, to the cork, or just the state of the wine right now? Intense color: dark and beautiful. Intense nose too: fine, fruity, pure, and finely truffled, with a note of coconut. Superb entry in the mouth - soft. The wine develops with a meticulous texture, melting yet powerful with a beautiful note of truffle. A fine-grained finale. Superb!"

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
The Left Bank appellation prized for perfumed, silky and elegant Cabernet-based wines. Gravel soils yield claret of aromatic finesse and refinement.
Chateau Margaux is a First Growth estate in Margaux, Bordeaux, celebrated for its perfumed, silky and profoundly elegant Cabernet-dominated wines, considered the epitome of the appellation's finesse.
