I quite enjoyed this wine, but difficult following up after an Opus One! — 3 years ago
Exceptional for a third bottling. A roaring beauty. Length and depth with a regal, grainy texture on the mid-palate. Blueberries and scorched earth present with fruitcake notes. Tannins and acid suggest a hold for many years. I’m impressed. Will only further improve. — 2 months ago
I had the pleasure par taking in this 2014 Margaux du Chateau Margaux. This is the third lable from Chateau Margaux a blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 49% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot.
On the nose were beautiful perfume notes, black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, spice, cassis, light herbaceous note, lilacs and earth.
On the palate there is black cherry, blackberry, plum, black currant, light oak, spice, cassis, graphite and earth.
This wine is medium bodied with a smooth velvety mouthfeel medium + acidity and medium + fine grippy tannins that leaves you with a long dark fruit graphite finish. The week looks great ahead maintaining a level mind and cool head. Stay healthy and safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — a year ago

Ótimo vinho. Harmonizado com costelinha suína ao molho de mostarda e mel. Taninos bem macios com final sedoso. No aroma tive a sensação de presente de uma fruta, me lembrou amora bem madura e no final senti um aroma de chocolate — 8 months ago
#sauternes so sweet and balanced. Third of three bottles for my wife’s 40th birthday. We saved the best for last, as it turns out. Honeyed layers as this gently warms in a Burgundy bowl - caramel, marzipan, toasted almonds, some petrol, apricot jam. Tastes exactly how it smells with the acidity taking a step back from the honey sweetness swirling around a luscious oily mouthfeel. Touch of orange pith bitterness on the finish - lovely wine. Indeed it pairs well with Indian food but the force of this wine could have easily matched even spicier dishes. Beautiful wine and what’s amazing is it seemed this wine could easily go another 20 years. Good Sauternes is ever youthful. — 3 years ago
