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

Fine Wine and Spirits
Since 2016, and under the authority of the LCBO, Waddington’s continues to be the only auction house permitted to consign and sell wine and spirits within the secondary market in Ontario. Waddington’s previously conducted the LCBO’s Vintages Fine Wine and Spirits auctions from 2009 – 2013. The popularity of collecting wine as an investment grows every year. Many wines offered at auction appreciate in value, especially rare and acclaimed vintages, making auctions an excellent way to build a fine wine portfolio. Our auctions also provide an opportunity for collectors to buy wines that aren’t available through other channels and allow restaurants to build world-class wine lists.
