  Oddly full bore fruit, like they are trying too hard.

  Medium-bodied, bright, fresh, crisp, crunchy red fruits with accents of flowers, wet earth, and cedar. This seldom seen Margaux is fully developed. Drink from 2022-2028.

  Classic Bordeaux: elegant but satisfying. Good weight of slightly sweet mainly black fruit. Moderate extraction, not at all over the top as the Margaux appellation has a reputation for. Medium body, acidity and tannin. slight tertiary leather on the medium length finish, with some complexity. Drink now and over the next 15 years.

  Yes yes yes! Very happy with this bottle and where it’s at after 8 years. Brought it to a friend to celebrate his promotion.
  
  Immediately lots of ripe, plush red fruit as well as dark fruit, stewed cherry but not in a overly sweet way. Some toasted notes, nutmeg, leather. Thicker in structure with a nice full mouthfeel. Tannins still very alive with a persistent aftertaste. Not much else that I could desire from this bottle. I’ll be happy to revisit in a few years, I’m sure it will still be kicking *ss.
