Chteau Margaux--Vintage 1900
Margaux, 1er cru class. Chteau-bottled
The magnum: modern chteau capsule - cut and revealing a clearly branded chteau cork. Re-corked at the chteau in the last 20 years. Very faded Pillet Will label. Level very top-shoulder. The first bottle:recent chteau capsule - cut to reveal branded chteau cork. Bin-soiled and discoloured Pillet Will label. Level very top-shoulder. The second bottle: modern chteau capsule. Bin-soiled and faded Pillet Will label (ex-Nicolas). Level very top-shoulder
Tasting note: Six notes: perfection. Two bottles at Desai's Margaux tasting, one with original capsule and "Pillet-Will" label, the other with an overprinted label (probably from the cellars at Lafite). Both sound, sweet, soft, rounded. Perfect. Most recently, deep; gentle, restrained; mouthfilling fragrance. ***** M.B.
