12.5 abv Margaux? 375ml? Yes, please!

Dry and flavorful. Earthy. City wine cellars $40

This needs a couple of hours to breathe, but it’s wonderful.

A beautiful yet shy Bordeaux that energizes the umami notes of foie gras. Chocolate forward. Valentine’s Day delicious!

It needs some time before it starts to sing

Excellent offering by the glass - petite and precise. A light but determined Bordeaux. I love this wine's sense of presence. It knows what it is and it does it well. Graphite nose, the palette starts with an off-sour attack of blue fruit but mid palette is soft. Finish is medium but the tannins are so fine they're almost liquid. A value Margaux that incorporates the subtleties and depth of much higher priced offerings.

Don't let the age (lack thereof) scare you. This wine makes drinking young Margaux youthfully delicious.

Excellent French red - dry, full and flavorful.

Needs to age. But it's great with a filet
