Wines from this chateau always have sentimental value to me as my dad bought a case of '83 as my birth year wine.
Expected it already to be on the downward slope but it showed pretty nice. Margaux perfume on the nose. Classic bordeaux red fruits, cedar, leather some dustiness, good acidity but unfortunately also a green note. medium long finish. Good to see a 12,5%er again. This is how Bordeaux used to be I guess..
So although this Chateau is a steady underperformer for its price, I still quite like it..

Hat noch ein wenig vom typischen, floralen Margaux-Parfum, erdig, Kirsche. Am Gaumen schlank, hohe Säure, leider dabei wenig präzise und ohne besondere Tiefe, Kirsche, kaum mehr Tannin, im Abgang von der Säure geprägt. Austrinken.

잘 숙성된 보르도의 아름다움. 과실과 숙성향의 균형이 좋음. 피크 이후 9부 능선 정도에 위치.

Reticent dark fruit, mineral and oak on the nose. Medium bodied, smooth, developed, matured dark fruit with a mineral aspect. Very nice.
