Description

Another monumental wine (please see my other listings) available for PRE-CHRISTMAS DELIVERY (if you're quick)!

ONE bottle of Chateau Margaux 1986.

Numerous tasting notes from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate with the most recent giving an exceptional 98 points being from teh 4th edition of the Bordeaux Book - January 2003:

A magnificent example of Chateau Margaux and one of the most tannic, backward Margauxs of the last 50 years, the 1986 continues to evolve at a glacial pace. The color is still a dense ruby/purple with just a hint of lightening at the rim. With several hours of aeration, the aromatics become striking, with notes of smoke, toast, creme de cassis, mineral, and white flowers. Very full-bodied, with high but sweet tannin, great purity, and a very masculine, full-bodied style, this wine should prove nearly immortal in terms of its aging potential. It is beginning to budge from its infantile stage and approach adolescence. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2050. Last tasted, 12/02.

Further excellent ratings from:

Antonio Galloni - 98/100
Jean-Marc Quarin - 95/100
Wine Spectator - 93/100
Jancis Robinson - 17/20

Priced lower than any UK merchant (source: wine-searcher.com)

Level: into neck

Label: on the whole, very good, but a few nicks to one edge (please see pictures)

Capsule: very good, slight rub to top (see picture)
