Based on previous reviews I wasn't expecting too much from this wine and to begin with it certainly came across as somewhat closed and short, with seemingly little prospect of improving. After double-decanting and waiting for a couple of hours it revealed itself to be quintessentially sublime Margaux however, continuing to improve over the evening. Quite superb.
