Margaux - Margaux 2006

Château Margaux, a founding Premier Cru

Château Margaux is more than a major or even essential growth. It is a founding growth, since the imagery around it had such a decisive influence in shaping the very idea of how a Grand Vin should exist over time and space.

Château Margaux’s renown stem equally from the intrinsic genius of the location as from the contributions made by the people who have served it for five centuries. Corinne Mentzelopoulos is one of those personalities that will leave a indelible mark on the great history of Château Margaux. She has been presiding over the destiny of the estate since her father tragically passed away in 1980. She has honored this heritage, vintage after vintage, all the while questioning herself with the aim of projecting Château Margaux into the future.

Although the fascinating destiny of Château Margaux has been marked by its people, it is above all the wines which are the greatest testimony. 2021, is part of this lineage and comes to write, by its singularity and its complexity, its own page of history.

Plenty of tannins still in play, and it is dense, powerful and reserved even at 15 years old. The tertiary notes of cedar, charcoal and crushed mint are just hints at this point, with the purity of Cabernet Sauvignon's cassis and bilberry fruits very much in the lead. First time that so little Merlot made it into the final blend, which no doubt also explains why the overall construction of the wine is so architectural and firm. Long drawn out finish, with higher acidity than the other wines in this lineup, with brilliant estate signature of precise peony and violet aromatics. You could begin drinking this with a long carafe beforehand, but it will still improve with another five years in bottle; and then go for decades. 100% new oak, 2% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Drinking Window 2023 - 2042

Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London.The 2006 Château Margaux has a sense of airiness and wonderful definition on the nose: wild strawberry, redcurrant, cedar and crushed roses soaring from the glass, but it never strives for the opulence of say the 2006 Château Palmer. The palate is very well balanced with fine and quite firm tannin in the mouth. This seems to be approaching its plateau after a decade. While not a powerful or ostentatious Château Margaux, it epitomizes understatement and refinement in a similar vein to Lafite-Rothschild. It is only after the wine has been swallowed that you appreciate its qualities and you feel urged to go back for another sip. Tasted January 2016.

On the taut, sinewy side, with cedar and sandalwood notes framing the core of red currant, bitter cherry and damson plum fruit. Offers a lovely singed feel through the finish, with a gentle perfumy edge. Despite the tannic profile of the vintage in general, this is all charm and hitting its stride now.—Non-blind Château Margaux vertical (December 2013). Drink now through 2022.

Deep but with a markedly evolved rim. Toasty nose and then very easy, fairly complex fruity appeal. Not the most distinctive wine with some greenness on the finish. Drink 2014-2028

It is worth noting that when the bottled 2006 Chateau Margaux, which appeared closed and less impressive than I had predicted from barrel, was retasted alongside the remarkable 2008, I elevated my score to 94+. It does not possess the size or power of the 2008 or 2005, but the 2006 exhibits impressive density, a deeper color, and the beautifully textured, pure style that is a hallmark of this estate. Moreover, it is relatively precocious, and can be drunk now or cellared for 25+ years. Drink 2009-2034

This has a wonderful nose of perfume, sandalwood, ripe plum and berries. Full-bodied, with seamless tannins and a long finish. Gorgeous. Best after 2015.

I was hoping the 2006 Chateau Margaux would turn out along the lines of the 1996, but that is not the case. It appears to be the least of the first-growth Medocs in 2006. The color is a medium dark ruby that lightens at the rim, and the bouquet offers classic, but evolved Margaux aromas of sweet currants, licorice, forest floor, and earth. Medium-bodied with dry tannin in the finish, it does not possess the profound concentration found in the truly sublime vintages of Chateau Margaux (i.e., 2005, 2000, 1996, 1990, 1983, and 1982). This mid-weight effort requires 5-7 years of cellaring, and should age for 20-25 years.

Bright ruby-red. Blueberry, boysenberry and violet on the pure nose. Lively and minerally on entry, then really expands in the middle palate to show terrific density with any loss of clarity. Wonderfully classy, vibrant and long, with compelling subtle sweetness of fruit. Finishes with outstanding depth and length. Although this wine was fined in January and racked just a month before I tasted it, it was far easier to taste than was my earlier barrel sample last spring.

Extrem dunkle Farbe, viel karmesinrote Reflexe im satten Purpur. Erstaunlichdicht, eifer, aber leicht kühler Berrenton. Im Gaumen ein wilder, fleischiger Cabernet-Bordeaux, noch etwas dumpf im Innern, mächtige Tannine, im Extrakt viel Pflaumenschalen, Lakritze im Finale. Ungeduldige Weinlibehaber werden im jetzigem Stadium hart bestraft.

Menthe et cerse noire, bouche tendre en attaque, tanins assez vifs, de la chair, des notes poivrées et minérales, un vin très long, tendu et fin, beaucoup de fruit, une très grande pureté.

2017-2040. Mittleres Purpur-Rubin, aufhellender Rand. Sehr dichtes Bouquet, Maulbeeren, Preiselbeeren und eine Spur Johannisbeeren, welche dem dicht beschichteten Nasenbild eine schöne Vielseitigkeit und auch Frische verleihen, darunter Trüffelnoten, Edelhölzer und fein pfeffrig. Im Gaumen Rasse und Finessen gleichzeitig, Fruchtspiel bei vielen vershiedenen roten Beeren bleibend, noch fein mehliger Fluss auf der Zunge, noch etwas fehlende, angestammte Süsse, was mit dem weiteren Barriqueausbau sicher kommen wird, Zeit brauchend, mindestens zehn Jahre Flaschenreife, um die Aromatik freizugeben. Philippe Bascaules, technischer Direktor auf Château Margaux, vergleicht den 2006er mit grossen Jahrgängen wie 1986, 1995, 1996 und 2000, so weit sind wir bei unsere Vergleichen (noch) nicht.

The strictest selection ever instituted at this estate resulted in only 36% of the crop being utilized for the blend of 2006 Chateau Margaux. Composed of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot, it is similar to the 1996, but with sweeter, more seductive fruit in the nose. A big, tannic, dense effort displaying terrific purity, power, elegance, and a distinctive mineral/flower component, it is a medium to full-bodied wine of great nobility that should be at its finest between 2017-2050+.

Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, jugendliche Reflexe, violetter Rand. In der Nase feinwürzig unterlegte dunkle Beerenfrucht, zarte Schokoladenote, wirkt noch etwas verhalten, Edelholzanklänge. Am Gaumen kompakt, saftige Herzkirschen, feine Zitrusanklänge, kraftvolle, präsente Tannine, die sich fast pfeffrig präsentieren, gute Länge, frischer rotbeeriger, extraktsüßer Rückgeschmak. Einzig die Länge ist nicht völlig überzeugend.

Encore un assemblage à très forte proportion de cabernet-sauvignon (90 %), ce qui le classe à part, avec ses pairs du classement de 1855 ! Arôme très noble et frais de petits fruits rouges, de cèdre, de rose, corps merveilleux de plénitude et d’élégance, tannin ultra racé, et inimitablement “margaux”, persistance remarquable, bref, une impressionnante réussite, encore plus typée de son origine que le glorieux 2005 où le raisin du millésime prend le pas sur le terroir ! Le second vin, Pavillon Rouge (17/20), bénéficie des grands merlots absents du grand vin, avec une tendresse et une chair inhabituelles ! Sublime Pavillon Blanc (19/20), sommet absolu de la production de blanc sec dans ce millésime à Bordeaux, sans doute à cause d’une récolte réduite de moitié par le gel.

Ungemein klassicher Margaux, dicht, wie aus einem Stück gemeisselt, erratisch, aber ohne jede Härte, mit Tanninen, die frsch und knackig enden, afu frischen Himbeernoten. 2016 bis 2030

Tasted at Margaux. Representing just 36% of the crop and consisting of a whopping 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, the highest proportion ever, this is a bold, masculine Château Margaux. A limpid purple/black hue. The nose is tight with blackberry and blueberries, harmonious with night on perfect acidity. Firm grip, cedar and a touch of graphite, yet I find this to be an exemplary expression of Cabernet, rather than an exemplary expression of Château Margaux, the latter being the greater. Like Latour, just missing that explosion of fruit on the finish. A superb wine, but handicapped by under-performing Merlot.

Mid crimson. So much riper and more appetising and fuller than the Pavillon rouge on the nose! Pretty complete already with lovely balance and lift, though the acidity is certainly notable, even if the tannins are wonderfully mellow. Very polite ad unforced. Dancing-reminds Paul Pontallier of 1996 with a little less density but just aas much charm. Very Margaux. This is the Cabernet of Margaux (not of Pauillac NB...) Graceful though only for certain palates. Follows through. Great line, as the Australians would say. Quite distinctive and much much more delicate than the early vintages of Margaux from the new regime here in the 1980s. Very fresh and elegant-quite a gamble in a way. Very, very fine tannins. Bone dry. Will always be in elegant idiom. 18++

Very powerful and rich. Fantastic. Full, silky and structured. Yet layered and rich, with loads of mineral, violet and coffee character. Incredible. So much finesse in the nose. What a wine. Similar to the 1995, which received 100 points.
