Château Margaux--Vintage 2008
Margaux, 1er cru classé
In original wooden cases
Tasting note: This is a stunning Château Margaux, made in a sexy, up-front, elegant style, with deep crème de cassis fruit intermixed with spring flowers, a solid inner core of richness and depth, but again, very sweet tannins as well as striking minerality and elegance. One of the most seductive Château Margaux given its recent bottling, this blend of 87 Cabernet Sauvignon, 10 Merlot, and the rest tiny quantities of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot should drink beautifully for the next 25-30 years. Remarkably, a mere 36 of the entire production was selected for the 2008 Château Margaux. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #194 May 2011
