Château Margaux--Vintage 2005
Margaux, 1er cru classé
Tasting Note: Grand vin: High percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon (85, unusually low percentage of Merlot (8 , the latter due to the exceptionally rich and high alcoholic content which would unbalance the blend. Deep, lovely colour but not as intense as expected; even by youthful Margaux standards, an extraordinary aroma, exquisite crystallised violets and mint. Totally unique: no other '05 matches this scent. On the palate, very crisp, alcohol a reasonable 13 good length of course, and tannic. At the chateau, April 2006 (*****) M.B.
