Château Margaux--Vintage 1947
Margaux, 1er cru classé
Belgian bottled by Vandermeulen. Bin-soiled label. Level just below top-shoulder
Tasting Note: 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 Book 3rd Edition (1998).
