Chateau Margaux
Margaux
1986 2bn, 1lbsl, 1wasl Bottle (2)
1986 4lbsl Half-Bottle (4)
"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." (98pts Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 4th Ed., Jan 2003)
