The tasting
Tasted as a wine future, the Chateau Marquis d´Alesme 2019 presents a superbly deep color. This wine is very precise, with vibrant fruit and a silky texture on the palate. Endowed with a great elegance, the palate is perfectly balanced. A superb vintage ending in -9 at this essential reference of Margaux.
