2004 Château Margaux - Bordeaux 1er Grand Cru Classé - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

Château MARGAUX Premier Grand Cru Classé 2004 "The sexy, dark plum/purple-colored 1999 Margaux is already revealing complex aromatics. This surprisingly charming and round offering is reminiscent of a vintage such as 1985. Although neither a blockbuster nor a heavyweight, it grows in the mouth revealing tremendous length as well as purity. Administrator Paul Pontallier prefers it to the more austere 1998, as do I. This is an archetypical Chateau Margaux of richness, finesse, balance, and symmetry. It can be drunk young, but promises to age nicely for two decades. Extrapolating backwards, it would probably have something in common with the underrated 1962 Medocs. " Robert Parker 2002 Rating: 94 Robert Parker Filling Level: Excellent
