1996 Chateau Margaux Margaux – DUPLICATE DO NOT USE

Another Parker darling, this Margaux is drinking beautifully as it approaches its 25th birthday, and will make a perfect centerpiece for the next two decades. “It is blessed with breathtaking delineation and freshness on the nose, understated at first and then blossoming with mineral-infused black fruit, hints of blueberry, crushed stone and violet,” notes Parker, adding this bottle is “perfectly balanced.”
