Description
Château Margaux 1983
Margaux, 1er Cru Classé
u. ts, damp-stained, wine-stained, and slightly glue-striped label, scuffed and oxidized capsule, slight signs of old seepage, slightly raised cork, bottle etched with floral design
In 2021, a wonderful colour, seemingly ever-deepening. A real blackcurrant nose, intense, pure and healthy. One is hit by the exuberant flavour on the palate, a wine of immense stature, luscious blueberry opulence and sheer class. This is glossy, shiny and absolutely show-stopping. The first vintage of the late, great Paul Pontallier and what a legacy this is. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
