Description
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Château Margaux (blended of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot) sashays out of the glass with glamorous red currants, candied violets, kirsch and crushed blackcurrants scents followed by notions of tilled black soil, forest floor, cast iron pan and cigar box with subtle wafts of lavender and oolong tea. Medium-bodied, mineral laced accents hover over the palate with an ethereal sensation of weightlessness, yet it is super intense with layers of red and black flavors supported by a firm texture of silt-fine tannins, finishing wonderfully fragrant and incredibly long.

Tasting note
2019年的瑪歌酒莊出品的葡萄酒是一款壯麗的酒,仍處於早期的發展階段。它擁有濃厚的濃度和成熟度,口感豐富,堅實而又順滑。酒的味道是紅醋栗、糖漬紫羅蘭、櫻桃酒和壓碎的黑醋栗的複雜混合,微妙的黑土、森林地面、鑄鐵鍋和雪茄盒的味道。薰衣草和烏龍茶的味道增添了空靈的觸感。這款中等酒體的酒有一個礦物味的口感,感覺輕盈卻又濃郁的風味。它以一種美妙的香氣和令人難以置信的長度結束。最好從2027年開始享用。
