Château MARGAUX 1er grand cru classé 2023 Futures

No other vintage can better express the magical association that is so difficult to obtain simultaneously finesse and power. A first growth without rival in its style!

Quarin : 97/100 « Couleur sombre, pourpre et vive. Nez très aromatique, fin, fruité, subtil et noble, avec du fond et pour autant une note florale de violette. Ultra minutieux en entrée de bouche, délicat, subtil et aérien au milieu, le vin évolue dense, juteux et parfumé, sur un toucher fin. Il s'achève long, sur une saveur de fruits noirs. C'est superbe ! »
Galloni : 97-100/100 « The 2023 Château Margaux is fabulous. Sensual, silky and exceptionally polished,  is shaping up to be a classic. Seamless, silky tannins wrap around a core of dark red/purplish fruit. Hints of spice, new leather, menthol, licorice and rose petal fill out the glass. There's a bit of new oak peeking through today, but that won't be an issue in a few years' time. Only Bordeaux can produce wines that offer so much flavor intensity at a low alcohols. Margaux is the least showy of the First Growths, but it is often the most refined. The 2023 is sublime. »
Martin : 97-99/100 « The 2023 Château Margaux,  is quintessential Château Margaux. It immediately blossoms in the glass with irresistible crushed violets on the nose, instantly demanding attention-you will gladly give it. Exquisitely defined and very focused with supremely well integrated oak, this is blessed with laser-like precision. The palate is silky smooth on the entry, perhaps a little feistier than expected thanks to a liberal sprinkling of black pepper. Quite structured and gentle, you can almost overlook its grip. It finishes with a concentrated, graphite-tinged finish that lingers long in the mouth. This First Growth will require ten years in bottle to really show what it is capable of. »
