MARGAUX
Château Margaux--Vintage 1947
Margaux, 1er cru classé
English bottled by Corney & Barrow
Levels: one just below top and one upper mid-shoulder; bin soiled labels
"In 1989 I had a chance to taste the 1947 on two occasions and the 1949 once. I was surprised at just how good the 1947 is because I had never been that impressed with most of the Médocs from that vintage. Among the first-growths in 1947, it is superior to Lafite and Latour and just behind the great Mouton. Quite perfumed, rich, and full bodied, the 1947 Margaux is capable of another decade of evolution. Moreover, there is none of the volatile acidity or harshness that often creeps into many of the Médocs from that year." Robert Parker, Bordeaux, Third Edition
