Product information
Broadbent: Entries from the mid-1970s to the late 1980s, consistently good, with the inimitable Margaux fragrance that unfolded in the glass. Corresponding flavour. Rich but delicate. Last tasted at Desai's tasting in Los Angeles in May 1987. ***** (5) stars
1926 Château Margaux (France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Margaux) 3/24/2004 Joe Belmaati 94 Light red with a glow fading from brown to orange. Leather and figs on the nose. The bouquet revealed additional notes of marcipan, band-aid (and glue) with air. In the mouth the wine was very intense, complex, dense, structured and packed with ripe fruit, releasing ever-evolving layers of complexity and dimension, delivered with incredible precision, tonnes of personality and character, and elegance and finesse for days. Simply a brilliant and perfectly mature wine (or should I say bottle?) and in hindsight my score is probably too conservative, as this stands as one of the most memorable wines of the night.
