Description

A rare bottle of Chateau Margaux 1943, the best war vintage. Ullaged to mid-shoulder; label remnants, vintage visible on cork; capsule has minor nicks and scuffs; wine has good clarity and colour through the glass; sediment commensurate with it's age; no signs of seepage.

Ch. Margaux website states: "This vintage was a tremendous success. It was the best wine produced at Château Margaux, and in Bordeaux generally, since 1934. We think back to those difficult times and conditions during the war with feelings of great sympathy. Many things were lacking : personnel, horses, spray products, generally everything. The success of this vintage is all the more touching. Château Margaux 1943 is very good to drink now. Its bouquet is very fine, very elegant, closer to the great vintages of the 1950s, like 1953, than the other great wines produced in the 1940s. On the palate, it is tender and harmonious, finishing on a smooth rather than dry note. This delicious wine to drink now can still be kept for several years more without any problem."

I am selling some wines from my private cellar, built up over 40 years, in order to buy wines I have yet to experience. All of my old wines were sourced from the cellars of other connoisseurs. Keep a look out for my other bottles!
