87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot. Harvested Oct 1-15. Medium purple, brilliant with full intensity. Very much Pinot Noir like on the nose, with lovely perfume of mostly red fruits with a touch of flowers and spice. Cherry fruit to the core. Gentle, medium acid and graceful structure balancing well integrated tannins. Definitely a wine of finesse and elegance, not power.

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.

Bright, dark red. Knockout nose combines redcurrant, blackberry, spices, flowers, tobacco and sexy sweet oak tones; complex and aristocratic. Then sweet, suave and seamless, with lovely inner-mouth perfume and noteworthy finesse to the flavors of blackberry, cherry and flowers. Finishes long and sweet, with noble tannins for the year. Not a big wine but one of the classiest examples of the vintage.
