What a great wine after so manny years and yes you need to like the taste of older wines. They have more earth, leather, but are therefore smoother on tannines. Stil nice red fruits in the mode and on the pallet a good balance. Let him breath and it gets even better. PS: don‘t drink a brunello afterwards :-)

After 55 years this wines still has e beautifull round taste with lovely left tannine. Yes you need to like old wines, as they get more dark fruits, earth tones and leather, even a little musky. Bit this was my first Chateau Margaux and was surprized why the rating is so low. This was just a fantastic bollte (neck fill)
