CHATEAU MARGAUX 1990 |

Château Margaux 1990 Margaux, 1er Cru ClasséLot 7106: u. 2bn, damp affected labels, from different importers, Taiwan importer's back labels, 4 slightly scuffed capsules, very good levels, color and clarity, Lot 7107: u. 4bn, very good color and clarity, from different importers, damp affected labels, very slightly scuffed capsules, Taiwan importer's back labelsDrunk with the 1989, the room divided on individual preference; I just came down on the side of the 1989! This is true First Growth beauty, with its projection of silky, approachable fruit and sleek bilberry taste - a smoothie of a wine. Utterly tempting and full of black fruit, it has perfect balance and irreproachable class. In 2015 at the property, pure berry fruit on the nose, with enormous freshness. Glorious opulence and fighting force. This really bounds out of the glass at you. A fabulous success. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 100 7106:12 bts (sc) 7107:12 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
