About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Cabernet Merlot Cabernet Franc Petit VerdotBordeaux, FranceChâteau Margaux is one of the original 1st growth classified in the Médoc and is arguably the most important of the region. Producing a predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon blend, Margaux consistently produces wines that are among the finest examples of the vintage. The 2003 Cabernet, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot blend has a velvety texture and notes of spring flowers interwoven with camphor, melted liquorice, crème de cassis. An investment - incredible poise & length.

This was the finest performance by this wine that I have seen since it was released. I did not expect the 2003 Château Margaux to show this well in a vintage where the southern part of the Medoc was clearly less impressive than the north. However, it is a beautiful, dark plum/purple-tinged effort with sensational aromatics, a full-bodied mouthfeel, and a youthfulness, precision and freshness that belie what one generally associates with this vintage. It can be drunk now and over the next 15-20 years. Kudos to Château Margaux.
