Wine Advocate #153 (6/2004) Rating: 89 points Drink: 2006 - 2014
This pure, elegant Margaux offers intensely fragrant aromas of melted licorice, black currants, and smoked herbs in a medium-bodied, deep ruby/purple-colored style. A classic Margaux with good purity, but not the size, depth, or power of the 2000, it is a finesse-styled effort with impressive balance. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (3/31/2004) Score: 91
Loads of blackberry and tobacco on the nose and palate. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long finish. Serious concentration for the vintage, yet outstanding finesse. I like this as much as the 2000. Best after 2008. 11,665 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating：
Rich, dense nose, has weight and opulence, almost plummy. Rich, full bodied, concentrated, vigour and spice, well-integrated oak, balanced. Drink 2008-17. |
