Saturday, November 6, 2004 - 2004 WS Wine Experience: Ch. Margaux Vertical (Hyatt Regency, Chicago): This wine contains only 7% merlot. It rained everyday during the merlot harvest, but weather was perfect during the cabernet harvest. Pontallier said that is the best cabernet sauvignon vintage that he can remember. This wine was very tight, but classical in profile. Needs lots of time. Glassy mouthfeel and abundant tannins. $300
