Saturday, January 8, 2011 - 2004 Margaux horizontal (Toast Bistro, San Antonio, TX): Rich fragrant nose of cherry and currants (distinctly darker fruit profile) with a little chocolate. Palate was rich with ripe fruits, but nice acidity leading into a long finish of coffee and mocha and gravel with dried/roasted fruit on the finish. Great complexity and balance, though I don’t recall anyone thinking this was Margaux. I thought it was either Lascombs or Pape-Clement. Tannins were more prominent with air and were rather big and coarse. Should improve in the next 5yrs. Consensus WOTN.
