Château Margaux 1995
Margaux, 1er cru classé
In original banded wooden case
Tasting note: First note in April 1997, seven months before it was due to be bottled. Tasted alongside the ’96, there was a tremendous difference in style, the ’95 seeming to have more of the elusive, indefinable vinosity; complete with gloriously mouthfilling young fruit, well integrated tannins and perfect balance. Again at the chateau, a year after it had been bottled; nose ripe, harmonious; good extract and fruit. At the M.W. tasting in 1999, losing some of its pristine depth of colour; sweet distinctive Margaux fragrance; lovely flavour and length. Next at Manfred Wagner’s vertical in November 2000; bouquet fully developed; a touch of citrus fruit and dry finish. Most recently: fairly deep but mature appearance; very fragrant, very pleasant fruit; dry, lean for Margaux but crisp and lovely, good length, good future. Last tasted Oct 2005 ***(**) 2008 – 2025.
