Drank over 2 nights - classic, quite mature Margaux. Very nice while not explosive nose of classic bdx scents. Med/full body with still a lot of fruit and fully integrated tannins. That refreshing quality of 2002 with a bit of herbal touch and nice acidity makes this highly enjoyable now.

Another 02 goes down with pleasure. Not much flesh but still Nice lean fruit while quite austere. Refreshing and lovely nose of cedar and tobacco in classic frame. This really suits My palate without the wow factor, classic and charming.

No formal notes. Deep colour. Drank along side a 2000 Lilian Ladouys. I'm not sure whether there was too much bret present: the wine wasn't corked and its classified-growth status did shine through, yet, there was a border-line tolerable earthy/musty note that persisted after 2+ hours of decanting and through to the next day.

Un autre 2002 prévisible, vert et léger, mince
et court en finale, pas grand chose dans le corps.
