94 Points

Tuesday, December 25, 2018 - Decanted for 60 minutes. Deep purple in color, this wine reveals aromas of tobacco, blackberry, blueberry and graphite. The mouth feel brought tight, sexy, approachable tannins as well as rhubarb and saddle leather elements. The finish is well balanced and long. 13% abv.

Purchased for $44US, this was an impressive example of Margaux from a quality producer. I wish I had bought more.

Imported by Blicker Pierce Wine Merchants, Napa, CA.
