Description

Château Margaux 1986

Margaux, 1er Cru Classé

Levels bn or into the neck; slightly nicked labels, slightly scuffed capsules; wines come from 3 different importers

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
