96 Points

Tuesday, May 13, 2014 - Such a treat as always, but this one was a step up from the last bottle. This has taken on more weight and concentration. It's pretty amazing - soo expresive and decadent, structured but yielding too. Earthy to begin with, and then it turns creamy and lush. I had the '09 Malescot St. Supery recently - another Margaux, which I love. This impressed more though. 96+pts. One would be very hard pressed to find Bordeaux showing better than this now for <$90. If there is such a bottle, do pray tell.
