Château des Graviers
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend
Margaux, Médoc, Bordeaux, France
Gorgeous. Floral. Berries. Graphite, lead pencil, florals, violets, wild mint, Thai mint, super juicy, complex, pure, sleek, very refined tannins. Cigar box, ashtray, velvety tannins. Stanky minerals. Terrific complexity on the nose. Juiciness on the palate is a highlight.

Jul 31st, 2021Gorgeous nose of violets, cassis, black fruits, really floral, fresh potting soil, so pretty. Just wafting. Palate is ripe, juicy, tangy and fresh. Sappy and so pure. Youthful and taut but very measured. Really great showing for this wine. Black fruits just burst on the palate with such clarity and purity. Awesome stoniness on the finish. Very refined tannins. Long finish. Much room to improve.

A beautiful Bordeaux. So classic and elegant. Dark brooding fruit, followed by wood, leather and earth, finished with smooth tannins. Great with my filet mignon but also a wine that one can drink alone while contemplating the meaning of the universe. Has even more potential if aged a few more years but still lovely now.
