Typical Margaux. Nice aroma but does not hold for long. Downhill after 2 hours in the decanter.

More richness and concentration on the nose than what I just tasted. A hair more wood but not too much. Vibrant on the palate, has some depth to it. Just opened, think it needs to open up just a bit.

Has mellowed from last year. Still tight and tannic, but approachable and enjoyable after a couple hours. Still young.

Union Grands Crus Bordeaux (UGC) 2020 Tasting (Hangar 14, Bordeaux): Thin with lots of green notes. Not enticing at present.
