Château Margaux--Vintage 1998
Margaux, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Tasting note: The 1998 Margaux's color is a dense ruby/purple. The wine is tannic and austere, but elegant, with notes of asphalt, blackberries, acacia flowers, and sweet, toasty oak. Subtle, rich, nicely-textured, and medium-bodied, it is built for the long haul. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2030. 91 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #134, April 2001
