Description

Chateau Margaux 2001
Margaux
Bottle (1)


"Performing well from bottle, Chateau Margaux’s 2001, which is somewhat reminiscent of both the 1985 and 1999, is an elegant, seamlessly constructed effort with a deep ruby/purple color, and a beautiful nose of flowers, creme de cassis, blackberries, and cedar. A blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot, and 4% Cabernet Franc, this forward, opulent beauty can be drunk now or cellared for 15-20 years. This is one of the most elegant wines of the vintage." (93 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, June 2004)

"The 2001 Chateau Margaux, last tasted five years previously, is slightly deeper in color compared with the 2001 Pavillon. Featuring black plum, raspberry and touches of orange peel, rose petal and light bay leaf aromas, the bouquet is not intense, but it is well defined and focused. The palate is fresh on the entry with fine-boned tannins and a taut line of acidity - a strict Chateau Margaux that doesn't want to muck about. It's a little short on the finish, yet sophisticated and providing unadulterated buvabilite. Drinking perfectly now, and it will be enjoyable over the next 15-20 years." (94 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2021)
