Domaine De Maucaillou - Margaux

For this relatively young wine the tannins are surprisingly soft and smooth; they give the wine structure or backbone and potential for ageing but they are very nicely balanced by the fruit and the relatively high acidity. The black fruits dominate on the palate - blackcurrant and black cherries and last through a long finish. This wine will develop further in the next five years or so and savoury & earthy aromas and flavours will become more prominent but for the next couple of years you can enjoy the fruity and smooth character of this beautiful wine.
