    Description

    Chateau Margaux 1996
    Margaux
    banded owc
    Bottle (12)


    "The color is opaque purple. The wine offers extraordinarily pure notes of blackberries, cassis, pain grille, and flowers, gorgeous sweetness, a seamless personality, and full body, with nothing out of place. The final blend (85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc) contains a high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon. It tastes complete and long, although backward. My instincts suggest this wine will shut down, but at present it is open-knit, tasting like a recently bottled wine. The fruit is exceptionally sweet and pure, and there are layers of flavor in the mouth. I do believe this wine will develop an extraordinary perfume, and possess a high level of richness." (99 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #122, Apr. 1999)

    If my clients were to auction something of significance, having Mike as the auctioneer would be a deal maker as far as I am concerned.
