2008 - Chateau Margaux

Limit 6 Bottles per customer.
"This is a superb vintage for Chateau Margaux, and while it may be too early to say this, the 2008 appears superior to the 2007, 2006, 2004, 2003, 2002, and 2001...As always, the first characteristic one notices is the extraordinary floral component as well as the sweet black currant fruit allied to full-bodied richness, sweet tannin, and superb freshness and delineation...The 2008, which appears set for 30-40 years of longevity, is a remarkable effort from this great estate." Reviewed by Robert Parker. -The Wine Advocate, 95-97 pts.
"Currant, blackberry and mineral aromas lead to a solid core of fruit, with fine tannins and a long, clean finish. Refined and very, very pretty." -Wine Spectator, 90-93 pts.
