Second wine of Margaux from a very good vintage. Still an adolescent. This would fool many blind. Very young, ripe, fresh and unresolved with loads of baking spices. At this stage, it seems more new world than old world. It going to take 10 years plus to show it’s Margaux elegance. Even after four hours in decanter. Dark currants. Ripe blackberries, dark cherries, black raspberries, black plum, strawberries pull up the rear, deep spice, clove, nutmeg, light vanilla, violets, red florals, tannins still big and fairly chewy. Cedar, tobacco, graphite, dry river stones, dark moist turned earth, leather, dry herbs/bay leaf, black licorice, caramel, dry stems, cherry cola, red licorice, fresh dark florals with violets, good acidity, big structure, tension, length but well balanced. The finish is still big, fruit driven with with strong dark rich earthy backside. @Charlie Palmer disappointing steak house

Quite structured, but some great elements poking out. Dark red plum, currant with some cedar as well.
