Château Margaux--Vintage 2006
Margaux, 1er cru classé
Tasting note: It is worth noting that when the bottled 2006 Château Margaux, which appeared closed and less impressive than I had predicted from barrel, was retasted alongside the remarkable 2008, I elevated my score to 94+. It does not possess the size or power of the 2008 or 2005, but the 2006 exhibits impressive density, a deeper colour, and the beautifully textured, pure style that is a hallmark of this estate. Moreover, it is relatively precocious, and can be drunk now or cellared for 25+ years. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #182 April 2009
