Sunday, May 13, 2018 - Still a lovely wine but showing some signs of decline. This bottle, which is second to last in a case I had, had a fill to low neck, cork was damp and fully saturated with a crusty top. No sign of TCA contamination, nose was quintessential Margaux and the body was still supple. Color was garnet almost brick like, good glycerine on side of glass. Flavor had hints of soy sauce, candied fruits, figs with a hint of truffle. Palate was a bit short compared to previous tastes but still brought lots of pleasure. Drink up.
