Château Margaux--Vintage 1996
Margaux, 1er cru classé
In original wooden cases
Tasting note: An outstanding wine and, as so often, a joy to taste from the start....Totally different style to the '95, leaner, spicy, taut fruit, finesse... very sweet yet very tannic. Most recently: good nose, dumb at first but developed lovely fragrance; good flavour and length but tannic and unready. Last tasted June 2003 **(***) 2010-2030. M.B.
