Why this wine
A classified-growth Margaux with fourteen years behind it, which is the point at which claret stops being a project and starts being a drink. 2012 was a grower's vintage, so this is finesse rather than muscle, carrying the roasted fruit and liquorice that only come with time. Cellar-aged cru classé, ready to pour.
