Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Margaux 1er Cru 2012

95–96
/100

87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc. Som alle 1er Crus endelig sorteret via elektronisk sortering. Meget fin næse af vilde bær, masser af rød frugt, lidt kirsebær. Æterisk. Meget delikat med fint salt. Stor spændingsbue. Lækker i munden, gigantisk samspil af smagsnuancer, med forrygende salt-mineralsk længde. Af en sensationel vin som 2005 eller 2010 at være, mangler den lidt massivt kød og lidt fyldig tannin i midten, men vinen er lækker, som kun de virkelig store vine er det i år. Måske lidt efter Chateau Palmer, Leoville Las Cases, Haut Brion og Latour, men absolut en stor vin. Højst sandsynligt til en høj pris. 95-96/100

Parker om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

The 2012 Château Margaux is showing much differently from bottle than it did from cask. Seemingly much fuller and richer, it has a dense ruby/purple color, representing a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest mostly Merlot, as well as only 33% of their harvest. It possesses hints of spring flowers intermixed with blueberries, blackberries and cassis fruit, moderate tannin, a multi-dimensional mouthfeel, and a long, structured finish. This 2012 was charming, up-front and precociously styled from barrel, but in bottle it is more masculine, dense and rich. This wine needs a good 5-7 years of cellaring, and should keep well for 25 or more years. This is a great effort from Château Margaux, and should handsomely repay those who buy it. Anticipated maturity: 2023-2040. 95/100

Wine Spectator om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

Bay and menthol hints lift a core of crushed plum and warm cherry confiture notes while the background fills steadily with black tea, singed alder and iron elements. Turns a little darker on the finish, with a coating of bittersweet cocoa powder and roasted vanilla bean accents, while the minerality stays buried for now. Remarkably dense and packed, yet refined, especially for the vintage. This will need some time to unwind. 95/100

Tim Atkin om: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

Just in case you’re tempted to dismiss 2012 as a light vintage, Paul Pontallier points out that this impressive Margaux has "significantly more tannin than the 1986”. This is certainly dense, with plenty of toasty oak backed up by perfumed, leafy fruit, fresh acidity and a herbal undertone. The acidity is quite marked at the moment, but will ensure that the wine ages gracefully in bottle. Serious, elegant and refined, this is priced appealingly, too. 95/100
