Château Margaux--Vintage 1983
Margaux, 1er cru classé
Very slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels: into neck and one base of neck
Tasting note: Two very recent notes within a month. The first, in magnum: a very deep core, rich legs, lively and still youthful; initial burst of fragrance but sweaty tannins, then a whiff of tar and coffee. Mouth-drying tannins yet seemed to get softer in the glass. 'Needs 20 years'. Next, in bottle, richly coloured; classic bouquet with Margaux' inimitable scent; delicious fruit and balance. A beautiful wine. Long life. Michael Broadbent M.W., Dec 2005
