Cantenac (Margaux), 3me cru classé
Lot 171; Two corroded capsules. Three badly bin-soiled and stained labels, five damaged. Levels: one upper, one mid, six low-shoulder.
Lot 172; Corroded capsules. Bin-soiled labels, one detached, one stained, two stained and badly damaged. Levels: five top, seven upper-shoulder.
Lot 173; Bin-soiled and stained labels, four slightly damaged. Levels: one base of neck, two top, three upper, two mid/upper, four mid-shoulder.
Lot 174; Bin-soiled labels, four stained and slightly damaged. Levels: two top, three upper, two mid/upper, four mid, one low-shoulder
Tasting note: "Exceptionally good, not quite the '61 but superbly balanced. A very good bottle noted at a pre-sale tasting in New York (1999) and, best of the lot, the fourth and oldest vintage of Palmer served by Michael Le Marchant: it was fully mature-looking with slight orange tinge; a fabulous - no other word - bouquet; sweet, lovely flavour, balance and finish. Last noted at the Le Marchants', Aug 1998 ***** M.B.
