Red wine
Château Margaux, 1er cru classé 2009
RRP £662
Quite the showstopper, the nose boasts tobacco, chocolate, and coffee indulgence. This wine has panache. Then on the palate, it is refined, pure and driven, yet gentle, until its latent power builds, with the ultra-juicy fruit core providing an endless finish. This is never heavy but ever-present.
