Tasting Notes |
Superb colour, nose of crushed red berry fruit, with all the depth but none of the hardness of Cabernet Sauvignon, very long, very pure fruit, a wine of great class that will open up young yet last well. Drink 2012-30. 5 stars. Decanter Magazine |
Pretty purplish crimson. More obviously dry and ambitious than the Pavillon Rouge. Some real lift and intention here. Delicate and super charming - really aerien and wonderful dry minerally finish. Great lift and delicacy without being at all thin. All the ingredients came from the core of Ch Margaux terroir. Pontallier: "You couldn't get any stricter. Pure pebbly soils facing the Gironde." Very pure indeed yet long. Real class and finesse. Very very delicate. Wonderfully typical of Margaux. "Mmm not Wow", says Pontallier. He doesn't expect 2007 to close like 05 will and 2001 already has done. Nice dry finish. The low key nature of 2007 seems to suit Ch Margaux. Jancis Robinson |
Aromas of blackberry, black licorice and currant follow through to a medium-to-full body, with fine tannins and a long, sweet fruit finish. Balanced and perfumed. Very Burgundian and pretty. James Suckling |
