M&PD Tasting: Bisato (Seattle, WA, USA): Wow, just epic. So Margaux, so ripe, so delicious. This is everything that the 1986 wasn't.

향은 아로마틱하고 우아함. 입에서 질감 역시 실키하고 매끈하며 럭셔리함. 페트뤼스를 연상시킬 정도. 여전히 과실미가 많고 생기 넘쳐서 더 길게 숙성 가능할 듯. 그레이트 빈티지의 축복.

Pnp. The best bottle of 90 Margaux I had with total ethereal sensation of cassis, dark fruit, autumn leave and forest. The tannins were fine and resolved. It had a lot of elegance. Very nice. 95+

a re-tasting of my 2019 note with 1990 Montrose - as before, the Margaux had the more effusive nose redolent of bright red fruit, lavender & violets, light vanilla - a perfect balance of acid, fruit and mature soft tannins in the mouth - still a somewhat shorter than hoped for finish, but this wine is singing now, and near perfect - will hold, but doubt it can get any better than this
