Parker über: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

-- Parker: The 1996 Chateau Margaux, a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, must be a strong contender for wine of the vintage. It offers everything you desire from this First Growth. 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. The palate is perfectly balanced with filigree tannin, perfect acidity, a wine where everything seems to be in its right place. Blackberry, crushed stone at the front of the mouth, just a touch of spice towards the finish that shows supreme control. This is a Margaux that seems to light up the senses. It was outstanding in its youth...something that has not changed one bit over the intervening two decades. This may well turn out to be the Left Bank pinnacle of the 1990s. Tasted July 2016. 100/100

Decanter über: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

-- Decanter: Softly spoken, fine tannins, pencil lead and leather, with truffle, earth, campfire and spice. Long drawn out finish, achingly slow, crushed stone, tobacco and dried roses. As with the 2001, the generosity and beauty of the aromatics tells you that this is absolutely ready to drink - although in many ways it feels like it will last longer than the 2001, as the tannins are still holding everything in place. This got the audience award on the night, and no question it is a stunning wine that is still giving so much pleasure at 25 years old. The 1996 has really grown into itself - it was a late harvest at the time after a burst of rain at the end of September that they decided to wait through before picking, and were rewarded with beautifully ripe Cabernet that was high in dense tannins and a little surly at first, but that has turned into one of the greatest vintages of the 1990s (rivaled only by the 1990 itself in my opinion). 2% Cabernet Franc completes the blend, 100% new oak. 100/100

Jane Anson über: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

-- Jane Anson: Tasted at Berry Bros 1996 '25 years on' supper in November, and also at the estate in June, this is unquestionably one of the finest 1996s that you can open right now. Softly spoken, finely-spun tannins that are still in control, setting off the white truffle, cured leather and smoked earth notes. This inches forward through the palate, slowly unwinding its raspberry and wild strawberry fruits, along with penoy and dried rose aroamtics. A stunning wine that is still giving so much pleasure. The team at the estate always say this is particularly special to them also - it was a late harves after a burst of rain at the end of September when many of their neighbours began to pick. They decided to wait, and were rewarded with beautifully ripe Cabernet that was tannic and a little surly at first, but that now proves the wisdom of holding your nerve. 100% new oak. 100/100

Weinwisser über: Chateau Margaux 1er Cru

-- Weinwisser: Mitteldunkles Rubinrot mit Purpurreflexen. Schon in der Nase unverkennbar ein elegantes, finessenreiches und vielschichtiges Margaux-Parfum. Was für eine Delikatesse! Da finden sich so ganz feine Cassisund rote Beerennoten der ganz frischen Art, unterlegt und begleitet von Rauch, Liebstöckel, Graphit und ultrafeinen Edelhölzern. Auch am Gaumen ganz auf Feinheit gemacht mit femininer Anmutung, dabei druckvoll mit nahezu gemeisselter Säurestruktur, durch und durch elegant mit seidiger Textur, dazu kommt ein Touch salziger Terroirnoten, die ihm ein gewisses Etwas geben, sehr langanhaltend. Wer im Wein den Begriff Eleganz erfahren will, der sollte diesen Margaux probieren. 20/20
