Château Margaux--Vintage 1989
Margaux, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: At Wagner's vertical in Nov 2000, I rated it second only to the '45. Sweet, soft, rich - a lovely wine. Last tasted, blind, from a jeroboam: very deep, almost opaque, cherry-tinged but maturing; singed spicy bouquet; drier than expected, stern, firm but with very good flavour. Last tasted Oct 2001 ****(*) Now-2025 M.B.
