Description

Half-bottle of magnificent Margaux. Wine Spectator 100 pts.
This is now rare in halves. Only stockist now in Hong Kong (£300+ incl shipping)

Robert Parker: The 1995 has continued to flesh out, developing into one of the great classics made unter the Mentzelopoulos regime. The colour is opaque ruby/purple. The nose offers aromas of licorice and sweet smokey new oak intermixed with jammy black fruits, licorice, and minerals. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with extroadinary richness, fabulous equilibrium, and hefty tannin in the finish. In spite of its large size and youthfulness, this wine is user-friendly and accessible. This is a thrilling Margaux that will always be softer and more evolved than its broader shouldered sibling, the 1996. How fascinating it will be to follow the evolution of both of these vintages over the next half century. (2010-2040)
James Suckling: Dark color. Black licorice, coffee, currants and black olives. Complex nose. A full-bodied, chewy blockbuster of a wine that is not giving anything at all away. It is like buried treasure still; you have to search for the gold. And it's there. Fabulous. Please give this time. (2014+)
Janis Robinson: Looks quite a bit more mature than the 1996 on the nose - even if there is still quite a tannic charge. Mellow, well evolved nose. Round and silky and already quite drinkable. Lovely and balanced. Very fresh. Elegant and polished. Great to drink now even though there is still some fine tannin. Mid weight. Pretty dry finish. Anthony Hanson thought the 1995 was less evolved than the 1996 but Michael Broadbent and I disagreed on that. (2009 - 2020.)
