シャトー・マルゴー 1985
1985 (750ml)シャトー・マルゴー 1985 (750ml) 9585の比較です。何時もながらの味でした。マルゴーは上品で良く出来たワインで飲み頃ですね。PP95点は高過ぎか・・・素晴らしく滑らかなボルドーですね。貴賓を感じるワインでした。何本も飲んでいますが、この瓶は状態は良い方だと思います。杉系の香りが押し寄せて来ないのも品のうちですね。1985 Chateau MargauxBordeaux Book, 4th Edition Jan 2003 Robert Parker 95Drink: 2003 - 2015 $475-$1374Approaching full maturity, this beautifully sweet Chateau Margaux has a dense plum/purple color and a huge, sweet nose of black currants intermixed with licorice, toast, underbrush, and flowers. Medium to full-bodied with supple tannin and a fleshy, juicy, very succulent and multi-layered mid-palate, this expansive, velvety wine has entered its plateau of maturity, where it should remain (assuming good storage) for at least another 10-15 years. A very delicious, seductive, and opulent Chateau Margaux to drink over the next two decades. Anticipated maturity: Now-2015. Last tasted, 10/02. Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition Jan 1998 Robert Parker 94Drink: 1997 - 2010 $475-$1374While not as powerful and concentrated as the 1986, 1983, or 1982, the 1985 Margaux is more charming and, at present, more complex than those more backward vintages. The color is a healthy dark ruby/purple. The seductive nose offers copious quantities of lavishly ripe black berry and cassis fruit intermixed with toasty oak and floral scents. This rich, expansive, and velvety-textured wine has developed more length, and additional flavor dimensions over the last several years. It has always been a remarkably approachable and enjoyable wine, but it appears to be taking on more character and quality than I ever imagined. It is one of the most delicious and seductively opulent Margauxs of the last two decades. I consistently underestimated this wine when young. It gets better every time I re-taste it, which happens with increasing frequency. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted 10/97. Wine Advocate #88Aug 1993 Robert Parker 91Drink: 1993 - 2005 $475-$1374 (75)The 1985 Margaux continues to age well and can be drunk with great pleasure. It is a lovely, seductive, medium-bodied wine with a gorgeous bouquet of toasty new oak, berry fruit, and violets. Rich, concentrated, supple, elegant, and graceful, the 1985 Margaux has turned out to be a beautiful wine that will evolve for at least another 15 or more years. Remarkably approachable and enjoyable to drink, for the next decade it will provide considerably more pleasure than the more ballyhooed and backward trio of 1986, 1983, and 1982. Anticipated maturity: Now-2005. Last tasted, 6/93. Wine Advocate #84Dec 1992 Robert Parker 92Drink: 1995 - 2010 $475-$1374Last Tasted 6/92It appears I originally under-rated this vintage of Chateau Margaux, which is displaying more character, charm, and complexity than I first thought. The color remains a healthy dark ruby/purple, and the nose offers plenty of vanillin smoky new oak, as well as cassis and an intriguing floral component. In the mouth, the wine is medium-bodied with the tannins beginning to melt away. There are gorgeous levels of sweet black fruits, low acidity, and a long, lush finish. Not as forward as the 1985 Mouton-Rothschild, this wine is, however, evolving into a more interesting and complex example of Margaux than I initially expected. Anticipated maturity: 1995-2010.
