"Bright dark red. Knockout nose combines redcurrant blackberry spices flowers tobacco and sexy sweet oak tones; complex and aristocratic. Then sweet suave and seamless with lovely inner-mouth perfume and noteworthy finesse to the flavors of blackberry cherry and flowers. Finishes long and sweet with noble tannins for the year. Not a big wine but one of the classiest examples of the vintage."
v"Tasted blind at the 2007 Bordeaux horizontal in Southwold. The Chateau Margaux 2007 has a stoic aristocratic bouquet of blackberry cranberry leaf graphite and smoke: very well defined and lifted with tobacco notes developing in the glass. Quintessential Pauillac. The palate has an understated entry with slightly degraded fruit soft raspberry and cranberry lovely well-integrated creamy oak with fine delineation and poise towards the finish that fades a little. The mouth is sensual compared to the nose. Tasted January 2011." -Neal Martin
