Tasting Profile

Nose
Aromatics: Beautiful nose, this is a very perfumed wine with subtle smoky woody aromas perfectly integrated with just ripe blackberries and blackcurrants. This wine is all about finesse and I could keep smelling it for hours with its dark chocolate and earthy notes.
Palate
Palate: Soft and velvety attack, opening on a fleshy spherical wine with texture and impressive length. Like on the nose blackberries and blackcurrant are the main event here this is one of the prettiest Margaux I had the chance to taste. The tannins are present yet gentle and polished, I also like the sense of place and length of this wine as well as the smart use of oak and limited extraction. I think this gives the wine that perfect complexity and drinkability balance. This is a wine I love to drink and share now
