#margaux #grandcruclassé it has very youthful, primary aromas of red fruits and flowers like strawberries, raspberries and violets and roses. It almost seems as if there were a partial carbonic maceration fermentation. Long finish.

Dark fruit, inky, intense, gravelly. Expect will get much smoother over time

Nice extraction. Ruby bright fruits, soft oak use and amazing purple florals. Much better than one would think and will likely be approachable within five to eight years of cellaring.

We enjoyed this from Margaux. It was very smooth and paired well with our Italian food. #Ilteatroquebeccity
