Chateau Margaux 1983 Chateau Margaux 1983 Margaux, 1er Cru Classe Good levels, labels badly faded, 4 damaged, 5 peeling, capsules slightly corroded, 1 damaged, repacked from owc Drunk with David on the evening of Paul Pontallier's death in March 2016 - it was his first vintage at Margaux. On occasions, the 1983 can seem a mite 'one dimensional' against the superlative 1982 but, on this night, with tears in our eyes, it shone, bursting over our palates in aromatic splendour. The rich, glycerol-driven texture expressed perfectly that great Margaux terroir - all liquorice, berries and sumptuous fruit flavours. Paul, you left an unmatched legacy.
