Product Description
VM99 "The 1983 Château Margaux is a fantastic wine that heralded the true return of the First Growth. This bottle came directly from the château's cellars. Incredible delineation and focus on the nose, this is just so pure and charming with black fruit, graphite, melted tar, cedar and pressed rose petals. It is close to perfection. The palate offers exquisite balance and finely-sculpted tannins. It's elegant and almost totally disguises its power. It gently fans out towards the finish with utmost poise and sophistication. Stunning. Tasted at the château." NM for VM Jan 2023
LP99" The 1983 Chateau Margaux is deep brick-colored. It waltzes out of the glass with an evocative perfume of plum preserves, kirsch, and blackcurrant jelly, giving way to suggestions of rose oil, licorice, and charcoal, with a hint of dusty soil. The medium-bodied palate is concentrated and fabulously plush, with exotic spice and floral nuances finely knit into the red and black fruit layers, finishing with incredible length. Impactfully graceful and achingly gorgeous, this was one of the wines of this vintage!" Nov 2024
