Description

Chateau Margaux 1986
Margaux
2bn, 1ts, owc
Bottle (12)
"Very tight and unyielding. Mineral with a slightly dry end. Still very taut. I would wait awhile for this." (17+pts JR, April 2010)

"A magnificent example of Chateau Margaux and one of the most tannic, backward Margauxs of the last 50 years, the 1986 continues to evolve at a glacial pace. The color is still a dense ruby/purple with just a hint of lightening at the rim. With several hours of aeration, the aromatics become striking, with notes of smoke, toast, creme de cassis, mineral, and white flowers. Very full-bodied, with high but sweet tannin, great purity, and a very masculine, full-bodied style, this wine should prove nearly immortal in terms of its aging potential." (98 pts. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book 4th Ed., Jan. 2003)
