The sleeper vintage. Simply just ready to go, holding nothing back as it wafts from the glass and the decanter with layers of cassis, cedar, violets and licorice. This is a wine of texture, as Margaux should be, and indeed its greatest attribute on this occasion. Liquid cashmere in the mouth with melting tannins, it’s sensual and elegant, caressing the palate with each sip, leading to its black truffle and mineral inflicted finale that keeps on going. Excellent showing tonight, and for my tastes drinking at its apogee.

As usual for this dinner I felt like it could have been opened a few years later, but unlike the burgs this was still super delicious.

A beautiful wine from an unremarkable vintage for Bordeaux. Barnyard, wet leaves old rose petals on the nose and dark ripe fruits, black cherry, pencil shavings, light hints of coco and leather on the palate. I love this wine and the 2001 will be even better in a decade (2028).
