Details
Château Margaux--Vintage 1997
Margaux, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
In original wooden cases
Tasting note: Undoubtedly a success for the vintage, this immensely charming, dark ruby/purple-colored wine exhibits floral, black currant, and smoky, toasty oak aromas. There is admirable richness, excellent ripeness, not a great deal of density, or superb concentration, but plenty of finesse, suppleness, and character. It can be drunk young, or cellared for 12-15 years. 90 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #128, April 2000
