Beautiful deep , dark colour . Initially reserved , the palate develops excellent body and substance with precise , harmonious tannins . While it is a pleasure to taste now , there is an excellent tannic structure in the background to give a sense of power and ageing potential . Drink through 2040 .

127 . PAVILLON ROUGE DU CHÂTEAU MARGAUX 2018 BORDEAUX - FRANCE
This wine is powerfully dense . It displays its own style and balance between rich black fruits and the acidity that shines through the structure . The wine will age well , its ripeness and concentration likely to soften as it matures . A great addition to your cellar to drink any time over the next two decades .
