Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend
Fruitful bouquet. Nice complexity. The mouthfeel is a bit thin, but the acid, which cuts through food nicely, makes up for it.

1 person found it helpfulFeb 13th, 20162nd label but still pretty classy: tons of character & Left Bank flair: cherries & red currants, cigar box, vanilla, cassis, some herbaceousness, palate was delicious w/red fruit & cassis galore, silky, finely integrated tannins, nice weight and balance. Length on finish is the only giveaway this is not classified growth. Overdelivers for price point. Safeway Steal

Jul 17th, 2021Dark berries pillowed by a welcoming balance of vanilla and woodiness. Long on the palate and easy to drink. A favorite of the evening, enjoyed with roasted pork.

Oct 19th, 2017A true Left bank. Medium dry, good tannins to cut though a hearty meal. A bit thin and burning alcohol taste at first but opens up nicely to show more depth. Earthy, pencil led, cigar box, light barn yard.
