Chateau Margaux 2003 Chateau Margaux 2003 Margaux, 1er Cru Classe 45% made the 'grand vin'. Glorious red fruit showing beautiful maturity of the grapes. Very, very good. David Peppercorn said that the texture reminded him of the young 1947. (They have also made a tremendous Pavillon Rouge in 2003.) That real "penetration" of a 1er Cru bouquet - intense, far-reaching and noble. A huge mouthful of stunning, healthy fruit with the complete, perfect balance of tannin and acidity. Smoky blackberries finish. SS.

The superb scent of Margaux fascinates - so alluring, so complex and so giving. The Mentzelopoulos regime wines are unerringly consistent in quality, often topping the charts against the toughest opposition. There is weight and depth, added to the breed and class that come from this fabulous terroir. Modern vintages are giants, brilliant creations of technical director, Paul Pontallier, exuding richness and rewarding the drinker with undying memories. SS. Quantity: 1
