CHÂTEAU MARGAUX 1990
MARGAUX. 1ER CRU CLASSÉ
U. VTS. SCRAPED, STAINED & SOILED LABEL. SCUFFED CAPSULE.
IT OFFERS AN EXTRAORDINARY AROMATIC DISPLAY OF SPRING FLOWERS, CAMPHOR, SWEET RED AND BLACK FRUITS, A HINT OF LICORICE, AND NO EVIDENCE OF ITS 100% NEW OAK CASK AGING. ROUND AND GENEROUS WITH LOW ACIDITY, BUT AN OPULENT, FULL-BODIED RICHNESS THAT IS FRESH WITH LASER-LIKE PRECISION, THIS STUNNING WINE IS JUST BEGINNING TO REACH ITS PLATEAU OF FULL MATURITY, WHERE IT SHOULD REMAIN FOR ANOTHER THREE DECADES. A SENSATIONAL EFFORT, IT IS ONE OF THE LEGENDARY WINES MADE AT CHATEAU MARGAUX. REVIEWED BY ROBERT PARKER. OCTOBER 2016 WA 100
1 6 LTR. PER LOT $9,000 - $10,000
