| Tasting Note | RP 92/100 The elegant 2007 Chateau Margaux’s purity, depth of fruit, and overall equilibrium are impressive. A dark ruby/purple color is accompanied by notes of spring flowers, black currants, and blackberries, a soft, lush, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and delicacy allied to impressive depth, texture, and length. Already drinkable, it should continue to offer exceptional pleasure for 15 or more years. WS 89/100 Shows a lightly stewed, diffuse edge to the plum, blackberry and black cherry fruit, with flickers of mulled spice and black tea filling in on the finish. Stylish and charming, if a bit shy on depth overall, this remains a very admirable effort in this generally rain-influenced vintage.—Non-blind Château Margaux vertical (December 2013). Drink now through 2019. NM 93/100 Tasted blind at the 2007 Bordeaux horizontal in Southwold. The Chateau Margaux 2007 has a stoic, aristocratic bouquet of blackberry, cranberry leaf, graphite and smoke: very well defined and lifted with tobacco notes developing in the glass. Quintessential Pauillac. The palate has an understated entry with slightly degraded fruit, soft raspberry and cranberry, lovely well-integrated creamy oak with fine delineation and poise towards the finish that fades a little. The mouth is sensual compared to the nose. Tasted January 2011.
