95. Château Margaux, Margaux (L) “Is the 2019 Château Margaux the wine of the vintage? A strong case in its favor could certainly be made. Soaring from the glass with aromas of blackberries, raspberries, rose petals, violets, pencil shavings and vine smoke, it's full-bodied, layered and sensual, with a strikingly vibrant core of fruit that's framed by ripe, powdery tannins and bright acids, concluding with a penetrating, mouthwateringly saline finish of almost interminable duration. Complex, elegant and utterly compelling, this is a brilliant Bordeaux that anyone with the requisite disposable income is going to want to own. Drink Date: 2029 - 2069.” 100 pts, Wine Advocate 39569, 69969 6 bottle limit $1,600 96. Le Marquis de Calon Ségur, St‑Estèphe “The 2019 Le Marquis de Calon Ségur is a terrific second wine. Ample, bold and dramatic, the 2019 packs a huge punch. Black cherry, plum, new leather, graphite and incense build as this flamboyant, opulent Saint-Estèphe shows off its considerable allure. The 2019 is a big wine, but the 15.1% alcohol is not especially evident. Drinking Window: 2025 - 2039.” 94 pts, Vinous 389656 $80 97. Château Marquis de Terme, Margaux (L) “The 2019 Marquis de Terme is a rich, heady wine. Dark red/ black fruit, chocolate, new leather, spice, menthol, licorice and spice open as this succulent, flamboyant Margaux shows off its personality. This is an especially dense, packed style. Pretty, floral, blood orange and spice overtones build as this super-charming Margaux opens in the glass. There's real depth and substance here, not to mention tons of energy. Impressive. Drinking Window:
2029 - 2049.” 94 pts, Vinous 389401, 390920
