A majestic Margaux that marries silken grace with muscular drive: lifted florals and graphite weave through layers of cassis, blackberry and ripe plum, accented by black tea, cedar and a hint of blood orange zest. The palate is deep and finely etched, its polished, grainy tannins and vibrant freshness guiding a long, savory, earth-tinged finish. Profound now with air, but destined for greater nuance in time.
