Description
Chateau Margaux 2005Margaux
1lscl
Bottle (2)
The Ancaster Collection! This cellar was painstakingly acquired piece by piece, with most wines coming through LCBO. Stored below ground, up against he foundation of the house, all wines are in immaculate condition.
"The first-growth 2005 Château Margaux (85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot), a lavish fragrance of blackcurrants, velvety new saddle leather, spring flowers and spice soars from the glass. The wood is already totally concealed beneath the cascade of fruit in this medium to full-bodied, pure and majestic wine. This concentrated, dense, but nevertheless strikingly elegant, multi-layered wine has a finish of 45+ seconds. It builds incrementally to a crescendo and finale. This is a stunner that can be approached already, but promises to be better in another 5-10 years and last at least 25 or more years." (98+ pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, June 2015)
"The 2005 Château Margaux is a stupendous wine. It has a multi-faceted bouquet with a mélange of black and red fruit, pressed flowers, cedar and graphite. A blue fruit hint emerges with time. It is still backward at the moment. The palate is intense for this First Growth with vivid flavors: blackberry, cedar, damson and a touch of cassis borrowed from up in Pauillac. It fans out remarkably on the mineral-driven finish, and despite its attractiveness, I reckon this is still a few years away from its drinking window. Patience is required. Tasted at the château." (98 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, Jan. 2023)
