Community Tasting Note

  • Vinum Deorum wrote: 94 points

    December 24, 2022 - A very good wine overall, but I wasn't blown away and it suffered the comparison with both the more mature glorious 2000 Margaux an the much younger 2016 Haut-Brion. Acidity is a bit high, and the wine already shows signs of evolution. Nice structure, silky tanins, but not quite the same combination of extraordinary tension and freshness that Cheval can deliver. To be fair I think I would have given it 1 or 2 more points if it had not been drunk next to the outstanding 2000 Margaux.
