Description
The 2007 Chateau Margaux has a blend consisting of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc. All of the Left Bank firsts are tasting excellent, but Margaux stands out for the tightness and clarity of its sweet cherry and cassis fruit expression, the menthol grip on the finish, and the perfume that runs through the palate. This is a 2007 vintage that could almost be ready to drink with a good carafing, but the layers of graphite and the finesse to the tannins suggest it could also go longer. This Chateau Margaux is a great example of the subtle crafting possible in 2007.
