Château Margaux 1986
Margaux, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case. Excellent appearance, pristine labels. Levels: into neck
Tasting note: A magnificent example of Chateau Margaux and one of the most tannic, backward Margauxs of the last 50 years, the 1986 continues to evolve at a glacial pace. The color is still a dense ruby/purple with just a hint of lightening at the rim. With several hours of aeration, the aromatics become striking, with notes of smoke, toast, creme de cassis, mineral, and white flowers. Very full-bodied, with high but sweet tannin, great purity, and a very masculine, full-bodied style, this wine should prove nearly immortal in terms of its aging potential. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate Bordeaux Book 4th Edition, January 2003
