Description

Château Margaux 1986

Margaux, 1er Cru Classé

u. vts, label nicked and slightly bin-soiled; nicked and scuffed capsule; sign of seepage; wine-stained owc

In 2019, a knockout bouquet of rich, deep, spicy black fruit. Velvety opulence on the palate, its superb 1986 structure covered by glycerol and massive fruit flavours. It just grows increasingly impressive. In 2020 and from magnum, even more grand and opulent, majestic Margaux in full flight. Fabulous harmony of power, volume and black fruit, with longevity a given. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 98


1 imperial - 6 litres (owc)
