Opaque purple, with a gorgeous nose of blueberry, blackberry fruit, licorice, incense and graphite, the wine has a multi-dimensional, skyscraper-like richness, stunningly well-integrated acidity, tannin, wood, and alcohol, a finish of close to 45 seconds and a full-bodied mouthfeel. This is a great wine from Margaux in 2012 and one of the vintage’s most remarkable efforts. The final blend was 48% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot. Anticipated maturity: 2022-2040+.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"notranslate wine-score\"\u003e96\/100\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Parker, Wine Advocate (218), April 2015\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tasting_note rounded\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"tasting\"\u003eThis is mind-blowing with complex and superb aromas of dried flowers, blackcurrants and raspberries.
