Tuesday, February 25, 2020 - A peek into some 2000 Bordeaux (Margeaux Brasserie, Chicago IL): Nose: This nose is straight up pretty and refined. I wish I had a bottle of this on my own to just spend time with as there is a lot of depth and class with red cherries, raspberries, cigar wrappers, rose petals, cedar, herbs, pencil lead, currants, spice notes, and a lot of perfumes.

Taste: The feel is Medium/full bodied with medium acidity and silky (but youthful), medium+ tannins. There is a lot of poise and refinement to the feel that is backed up by deep tones of red cherries, raspberries, currants, cigar wrapper, herbs, and cedar.

Overall: This is gorgeous and beginning to find itself in a real great place. There is an immense amount of depth and balance that comes with the age and while it's getting into a great place, it feels like there is plenty to go.
