Description


A bordeaux Blend Dry Red Table wine from Margaux, Bordeaux, Fance. Robert Parker writes "In weight and texture, the 1981 Margaux is closest in style to the 1979. It is an outstanding wine, even in the company of the monunental wines of 1982, 1983, and 1986...very dark ruby/purple-colored...aromatics suggest ripe cassis fruit, spicy vanillin oakiness, and violets. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, concentrated, tannic, and extremely long...Anticipated maturity: Now-2015.
