Chateau Marquis d'Alesme 2009
Bordeaux - Third GrowthMargaux - Red - 14°
92-94 Points, Neal Martin
"A deep purple colour. The nose is tight at first: blackberry leaf, Doris plum, a touch of cold limestone and crushed minerals. At first, it appeared slightly over-ripe, but with time it harmonizes and attains great delineation. The palate is medium-bodied but with very good weight and symmetry, fine tannins, the minerality really showing through on this wine, with touches of liquorices and spice on the long finish. Very fine. Tasted March 2010."

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Even in a great vintage such as 2009 (perhaps the finest for the Cabernet Sauvignon grape during my three plus decades of tasting wine), this wine, a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc, 15% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, is still lean, austere, and uninteresting. Hope springs eternal. (Tasted once.)
