Description
Chateau Margaux 1998Margaux
Bottle (12)
"The 1998 Margaux's color is a dense ruby/purple. The wine is tannic and austere, but elegant, with notes of asphalt, blackberries, acacia flowers, and sweet, toasty oak. Subtle, rich, nicely-textured, and medium-bodied, it is built for the long haul." (91 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, April 2001)
"Shows a lightly taut feel, with plum skin and cherry pit notes melded into the core of damson plum, blackberry and mulled cherry fruit. Shows the estate's telltale black tea and lilac hints through the finish, with lovely grace and charm that wins out over the sinewy structure." (91 pts. James Molesworthy, Wine Spectator, 2014)
"Bright full ruby. Perfumed, primary aromas of blackberry and rose petal, plus a whiff of mint. Quite concentrated but tightly structured and extremely unevolved. Lovely purity of flavor and thrust give the fruit impressive urgency. Dusty, even tannins coat the entire palate. Very long, subtle finishing fruit." (93 pts. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 1999)
